Review on πŸ’‘ Sylvania CF13DS: Powerful and Energy-Efficient 13 Watt Compact Fluorescent Bulb by Troy Zelazny

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Pleased with a large stock. They don't last forever and local retailers are drying up.

They just work. I'm always a bit apprehensive when ordering similar items online for fear that they won't be compatible. But they came as advertised and now I have a large supply to use and share with my neighbors. By the way, you usually hear that fluorescent lights last a very long time, but I don't think they last much longer than some old incandescent bulbs. I suspect the bulbs are fine, but the "conversion" in the base (power supply? transformer?) is designed to take less time.

Pros
  • No dimming
Cons
  • Boring packaging
