Review on πŸ’‘ Panasonic F612E5Y30AP Lamp: Illuminate Your Space with Efficiency and Style by Bryan Fields

Revainrating 4 out of 5

PRECISE REPLACEMENT FOR GE PROFILE MICROWAVE LAMP. WORKS PERFECTLY!

If you need to replace a GE profile microwave bulb and are wondering if this Panasonic bulb will work, rest assured that this bulb is an exact replacement for a bulb that GE no longer makes. After a thorough internet search I found that GE bulbs were no longer available (discontinued) and was surprised to see a few people selling USED bulbs from disassembled GE microwave ovens for $13. For USED LAMPS! I'm not sure who's crazy, the person selling the used lightbulb or the guy buying it. Anyway, I was able to find an outdated GE lightbulb and they came up with this Panasonic. It has the correct terminals for wire connectors. The lamp fits and works great. A note to owners of GE Profile microwaves. Replacing a lightbulb is kind of a headache. There is no access panel for changing the bulb, so you will need to remove the microwave's lid/casing to access the bulb. You will need a Phillips screwdriver and a Torx 25. The entire bulb replacement takes about 15-20 minutes. There is a helpful video on YouTube with step-by-step instructions.

Pros
  • Easy setup
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
