Light bulbs are not impressed

First one took less than an hour. Try the 2nd to see how long it lasts. Not very bright either. I'll update the rest of the box.

Pros
  • Sleek design
Cons
  • Ugly packaging

DO NOT BUY Halogen bulbs

As others have stated in their reviews. These lamps only last a few weeks. One of my under cabinet lights has a replacement bulb from Home Depot and has lasted over 2 years. All of the other Puck lights I've replaced with these bulbs ALL went out after a few weeks.

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Without automatic

Took about four months.

I only bought them in December. It's May and there are only two left out of eight. Considering I don't turn on the under cabinet lights very often, I'm disappointed with the durability. I always install them without touching the bulbs and they burn out quickly anyway.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Easy maintenance

4 out of 10 burned out in a week - we're back!

I have no idea how such a high rating is related to this. I installed all 10 lights in the kitchen and the first one went out within 24 hours. The second the next day and the next day two more. I won't even watch how long the others take when they all go back to the box and back to Revane.

Pros
  • Doping 🔥
Cons
  • Some issues

The right bulb for the job

These bulbs are just what I need for lighting under the kitchen cabinet. They arrived well packaged. Each bulb is packed separately (tiny boxes for tiny bulbs) and in each box the bulb is wrapped in soft white paper/cloth. This little white sleeve is perfect for grabbing a slippery lightbulb and sticking it in a fixture. Since it is very important not to touch the bulbs with your fingers, these little wraps were greatly appreciated. My only disappointment is that although the specs say the…

Returned due to incorrect description

My existing lamp was 1.25 inches long. This was the advertised size for the product I ordered, but it was 1.875 inches and too big for my mount. However, we appreciate Revain's return and refund mechanisms! There was a problem. The supplier said the return was approved. It wasn't in my application. The supplier blamed Revain and I believed them at first. I recently noticed that an amount identical to the refund I was expecting was credited to a later purchase and referred to as a 'Revain Gift…

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Not sure

I wish I had bought these lamps here before!

I'm so glad I had the brains to buy these We have 12 lamps under the bracket at home with 4-5 bulbs each, they wear out quickly and are $6-7 each at Home Depot & Lowes I had to find another solution as we were in the last few Spent about $120 2-3 years replacing bulbs.The expensive ones were so heavy and even broke - these went in sooooo smoothly!The color is perfect and I can't say anything bad!Don't touch the bulbs with the installation cloth. You really only need to adjust the width and…

Pros
  • 33mm long / 1.25" long ********** PACK OF 10 **********
Cons
  • Crumpled

I've seen some reviews saying their bulbs don't last long; If mine isn't, I'll update this review. Unfortunately, there aren't any instructions that say *don't touch lightbulbs anywhere* without using a clean glove or plain cloth, but having worked with small halogen lights at work I know I can put finger oil on such a small lightbulb surface apply and then expose. The heat they generate during use leads to uneven heating and rapid burnout. Locally made lamps have served my home for years with…

Pros
  • G8 two pin socket
Cons
  • Not sure

Old Light Bulbs: Bulbs

I bought these bulbs to replace blown bulbs in my GE microwave oven under the cabinet. I thought it was good value for money but as they say you get what you pay for. The 1st bulb came on with no problems, but the 2nd bulb had no problems. I broke 3 of these trying to plug them into an outlet. All 3 broke in the same place - where the pins come out of the base and where the base enters the sockets. All 3 shattered into small pieces and 2 of them left a pin stuck in the socket. Every time one…
