Efficient Industrial Electrical: Compact Fluorescent Spiral with Equivalent Lumens Review

When I ordered these bulbs, 1 died immediately after unpacking. I sent them back and got a replacement. 2 bulbs that I use every day for a few hours and they were fine. I have 2 more in the lamp that I use a few times a week and they have been fine for about 3 months now. I have 2 other table lamps that run 2-3 hours every week and one of them died. The lamp must be operated for more than 20 hours total operating time. I also don't see any warranty or support information.

Surprisingly bad quality. After the first two bulbs stopped working for 1 week I thought the light was the problem. Since the lamp has two sockets, I replaced one of them and a light bulb that I bought elsewhere. And so, within a month, that lightbulb stopped working, while the other lightbulb was still working fine a few months later. Definitely not user error and it's hardly an accident if all 4 bulbs in the pack stop working. Really bad product.

So far, two out of six compact fluorescent lamps have failed. Each only lasted about a week. I rate the first error as legally average but when the second error failed I looked into the return and found that the return had only expired 3 days ago. CFLs are said to last longer than regular incandescent bulbs, although there are no guarantees, but two failures in that many weeks is too many in my opinion. These lamps should last an average of 10,000 to 15,000 hours (roughly 12 to 20 months…
