Delivered very quickly

I have bought this bulb from these guys many times over the years. It works on my kitchen ceiling fan which is a nuisance and I have to take it apart to replace it. So it's good that it lasts for several years. Also, they're not always available in local stores, so that saves me a lot of walking.

Pros
  • Handy item
Cons
  • So far so good

It only took about 3 months in our home office.

The ceiling fan in our home office only lasted about 3 months. Replaced it with a 7" white low profile HD LED downlight; I removed the ballast and bulb, then unscrewed the LED plate from the lamp body and screwed it on where the ballast and bulb used to be. More light, less energy :)

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Slightly wrinkled

This is a T6 size bulb, not a T5 size bulb as stated in the description.

I received this bulb and measured the circumference of the tube to be 6.1 cm (2.4 inches). Divide by pi to get a diameter of 0.764 inches. To convert to T (eighths of an inch), divide by 0.125 = 6.112 inches, T6, not close to T5, which would be 5 cm in circumference. Fits my lamp, I can confirm my previous statement that this lamp is NOT a T5 but a T6.

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • Out of fashion

Ballast Incompatibility

My ballast had four pins. This round lamp had an incompatible pin arrangement. I ended up running to a home center to get thicker bulbs with the usual 4-prong arrangement. I replaced the bulb socket on the light and everything was fine. These whistles are now in my donation box. D- for this!

Pros
  • This 2C Cirline bulb uses only 40W energy efficiently to produce cool white light
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for the elderly
