There is enough light to see, but not a single flying insect to be found!

I installed this in a bracket just behind the sliding patio door. I like to sit outside late at night but dealing with all the flying bugs or not having enough light to see and move was a challenge. This little lightbulb solved the problem for me. There is enough light to see well but the flying bugs don't bother me and don't try to invade my house as I go in and out. I wouldn't want to use this for my front door because I'd like to have a white light with a dusk to dawn feature for both…

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • Unbelievable price

Attracts moths. Tested & compared

I'm a fan of LED lighting and swap lamps and bulbs for LEDs whenever I get a chance; When practical, ie on my patio, I have two "porches" within 10 feet of each other.

  • Easy installation
Cons

Regular CFL bulbs were the worst in this house. I couldn't come at night because of moths and various small insects. The GE light wasn't much better. I could have sworn there were a few fewer bugs, but it was bad enough that my wife said there was no difference. That…

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Not as thick as other options
