Cannot be found locally, thanks Revain

I have a fixture with multiple bulbs and cannot find bulbs of the same color and size locally when one burns out. That's exactly what I need.

Pros
  • FLE11/2/A17XL/CD - GE for any application
Cons
  • alt

Worked well for bulb

We bought one of these bulbs many years ago. It has worked great in a fully enclosed downlight for many years and never had a problem. I'm buying another one now because it finally broke. Many other compact fluorescent lamps have not lasted as long.

Pros
  • 11 watt bulb
Cons
  • I don't remember

There are MUCH better alternatives now

Don't buy these fluorescent bulbs! There are MUCH better alternatives now. They emit a very yellow light, then turn on instantly and don't produce as much light as a 10 watt LED, despite costing as much or more. Use a more advanced 10W LED with white light, instant on, dimmable and more lumens. It's not even close.

Pros
  • 10,000 hour rated life
Cons
  • Socket required

Works great with CFLs

We bought one of these lightbulbs many years ago. It has worked great in a fully enclosed downlight for many years and never had a problem. I'm buying another one now because it finally broke. Many other compact fluorescent lamps have not lasted as long.

Pros
  • 550 lumens output and 11 watts usable power. Lumen measures the brightness of a lightbulb, Watt measures the current used to produce light
Cons
  • Great Price
