5 out of 5 stars Works great, no problems   September 8, 2009

I have not had an issue unlike the other reviewers here. At the time of this writing, my GE bulb has been used in a floor lamp for about three and a half months. It goes on almost every night. The bulb has been great for me since it allows me to add a lot more light to the room while using much less power than an incandescent 100 W bulb. Please be aware that it's quite a bit larger and more than an inch taller than a regular CFL bulb.


5 out of 5 stars Great bulbs!   October 30, 2009

1 out of 5 stars Don't believe any of the hype.   July 31, 2009

I have a lamp where I use a 150 watt bulb. I know that's a lot, but the lamp is built for it and I need a lot of light there. I didn't realize they made a T4 bulb with a 150 Watt equivalent. When I read the bullets, especially "Guaranteed to last 8 years based on 4 hours use per day at 120V" I thought, why not try it. My 150 bulbs usually only last a few months. This could be cool. So I ordered one. Just to see. I saw. It lasted 8 days. And I seldom had it on more than four hours a day.

Don't waste your money. It's too bad too, because it really did seem the equivalent of a 150 Watt bulb.



1 out of 5 stars Bulb burns out after just a few hours of use   August 19, 2009

It is unbelievable that GE would manufacture such a defective product. My GE "Energy Smart" 3-way bulb (50-100-150 equivalent) burned out after just a few hours of use. I learned that mine was not an isolated case--early failure is all too common with this bulb. Apparently this was a consequence of rush to manufacture to meet expected demand. GE should issue a mea culpa statement on this and issue a recall. They have seriously subverted a Green Movement initiative that could have greatly reduced our collective carbon emissions and saved millions of barrels of oil. SHAME ON GE!
