Review on πŸ’‘ Enhancing Illumination: Philips 416099 Candelabra Indicator - 12 Volt Brilliance! by Tara Perez

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Make sure you get those 12 volt light bulbs! Few new refrigerators use this type.

I've read more than one review of it mentioning instant burnout. This is exactly what happens when they are built into most refrigerators to illuminate the ice and water dispenser. Most use a 120V bulb, much like a night light. They screw straight into the socket but pop out if they catch fire! They work great side by side in my GE, just what I needed and I got these 2 packs for less than the price of a single 'real' GE bulb. . They're still overpriced for what they are, but now I can see my water spilling again. If you screw a regular night light bulb into a socket and it glows brightly, you have the 120V version, which is the most common. If the lightbulb is dim, you most likely need one of these.

Pros
  • great product
Cons
  • something different
