Review on 💡 Efficient Professional Lighting: F54W/T5/865/ECO Linear Fluorescent, T5 by Tim Reimann

I bought two boxes of 6 bulbs each from a local utility. The instant discount brought the price down to $2 per bulb (I live in New York so not sure if this is available in every state). Anyway, I don't have dimmers, just on/off. After 7 months a lightbulb flashes from 'full power' to 'half power' as if one side of the rectifier (which converts AC to DC) is failing/defective ORRR one of the capacitors on one side of the rectifier is dying. At least for a product with a multi-year guarantee. don't buy them. So when I went to GE for a replacement, I received an $8 warranty coupon for each two-bulb package. Don't you know, two packs are more expensive than the 6 packs I bought. I hate GE. You should have just replaced the damn lightbulb.
