Review on ๐Ÿ’ก Sylvania 16156 Capsylite Reflector Replacement Bulb by Ryan Frazier

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Bulb burned out after only 6 weeks

I was very pleased that these bulbs were available. I live in an apartment with track lighting and those bulbs can be quite expensive. I really don't want to spend a lot of money replacing lightbulbs that I may not use in the future if I eventually move house. I replaced two lightbulbs 6 weeks ago and one of them blew today. I'm pretty sure this was one of the replacement bulbs recently purchased as all the previous bulbs were the same before I replaced them with this other brand. I am very disappointed that my investment only lasted 6 weeks. I can't afford to change the lightbulbs that often and I really expected them to last at least a year considering how often I turn the lights off and use natural light from the windows instead. I hope it was just a quality control issue. with that one lightbulb. I bought a 6 pack from this company so I had a spare bulb to replace a blown bulb. Let's hope the second change lasts. I'll update my review again if I continue to see this issue spreading throughout the listing.

Pros
  • PAR 30 halogen bulbs offer excellent quality of light - emits a flat and round beam at a wide 50ยฐ angle
Cons
  • Ugly packaging
