Review on JACKYLED Adapter Resistant Converts Standard Industrial Electrical for Lighting Components by Bim Cook

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great savings solution!

For those of you in the same situation as me, this is the solution for you. In my house (built in 2010) every light fitting has GU24 bulbs. There are about 40 lightbulbs on my first floor. At Home Depot or Lowes, replacement GU24 bulbs are about $8 per bulb. Replacing all the lightbulbs in my house would cost about $320. Sam's Club has a pack of 6 GE Soft White 26W CFL bulbs for about $6. At $1 per bulb it would only cost me $40 for my entire first floor. That's a savings of $280. So it's worth spending that small amount to save a big amount. My only complaint is that this addition makes the bulbs look a bit longer. So far everyone has fit in the lights with no issues, but I can foresee some issues with some of the smaller lights (that's the reason for the 4/5 stars) so I'm glad I don't have them at home. I've ordered them several times and replaced bulbs when they burned out. Home Depot has CREE LED bulbs for $5 per bulb. I have actually replaced many of the burned out GU24s with these 50,000 hour lifespan and lower cost LEDs.

Pros
  • Top marks for grip and durability from testers
Cons
  • Not as thick as other options
