on 2010-01-27Just got these today, so can't comment on longevity issues. They are instant-on without a flicker, but they take a couple of minutes to get up to full output. But once they are on, they are ON!!! I'm using them in my basement, and if you view the light from the top of the stairs you would swear it was natural sunlight. These are very bright and are perfect for my particular application - would probably be great for a garage or workshop too. Probably not suitable for use in a lamp (unless it's huge and you want sunlight-type light rather than soft white), definitely not suitable for use in an overhead light fixture. Overall I'm very pleased with the product, including its price. Also - mine arrived promptly (2 days with Prime shipping) and in perfect condition.

on 2010-01-21I use these lights for a cabinet grow box for my seedlings and clones. They have enough lumens to promote vegetative growth, and are in the correct color spectrum. They produce very little heat, given their wattage, which makes them great for small grow areas. You won't need a ton of ventilation to keep the heat down; just a little 4" inline fan is all I use.

on 2010-01-16This light is intensely bright. I got onto the Fluoroscent bulbs when I switched over and I saw how much it reduced my electric bill. I also liked the fact that I could spoil myself with the high powered light bulb without the high powered bulb prices. I put a few 100 watt bulbs in the house but I didn't even know they went to 200 until I saw this one. To be honest it's almost to much. It really and truly makes it feel like it's the middle of the day when I turn this thing on at night. I am excited to read with it. It's a very pure slightly blueish light. The bulb is much larger than a normal bulb so be aware.
The only light I could compare it to is the elven light in Lord of the Rings. You know the one Frodo holds up to fend off the spider? It's exactly like that. Seriously. It's elven bright.

on 2010-01-07This bulb is good for workshop or kitchen areas if you want more wattage than usual for an energy efficient bulb. However, it is not appropriate for a living room or bedroom because the light is not warm, but similar to the light from a flourescent bulb.

on 2009-12-12I ordered these and some Alzo 45 watt CFL 5500K. The Feit bulbs came first so I used them first. They were very bright, in fact, too bright for me. I was hoping for a more pure white light so I was disappointed with the bluish light. The following day the Alzo bulbs came in. I changed the Feit bulbs out with the Alzo bulbs and they were just what I was looking for in a CFL. They turned on quickly (as did these Feit bulbs) but also were a pure white light like I've never seen in a CFL before. I've moved these Feit bulbs in the other room for kitchen duty. They are now in the fixture above my sink and they do a fine job there.
