Questions & Answers

The 12" measurement is how is it determined?

It is perfect for lighting up under counters.

Which ballast should I use for these bulbs?

They are 12 volt bulbs meant for RV

We bought a new ge f8t5 / cw and it is about 1/4" longer than the one that broke. ?

Unfortunately, they did not fix my fixture as well, so I was unable to use them. Sylvania's bulb for my fixture is the one I purchased that works in my Despite their shorter size, the main thing that differentiates them is the rounded rectangles at the end of each bulb. Fixtures must be rotated before installation, and then they snap into place when they do. When I tried to find what I needed for my fixture, I ran into some problems.

Each costs $ 20
3/5

Their product line is manufactured by CH Lighting using rare earth halophosphor powder. In addition to their assurance of stable quality, long life and energy efficiency (8 W), they boast that its color temperature ranges from 3000K to 5300K (about 3000K closer to tungsten than fluorescent), making it comfortable to the An average day consists of My eyes will feel the strain of 5000K or 6000K degrees of light from a light tube. I am using only one at the moment because I think they are good bulbs. However, I am experiencing this The bulb doesn't turn on completely the first time it is turned on and flickers a bit after 2 months. It worked like a charm after I turned it ON and OFF again a few times. It is a nice color and I leave it on even during the day. It's not dark. Seattle is so dark in the winter that you feel like a zombie and you need light all the time. I am also using an old light appliance I found in the basement 25 years ago, which could be an issue with the bulb or with the old appliance. In the month that follows, I will test another bulb. However, I would highly recommend you to purchase it, because the price is great and I am sure it will be useful. Rather than creating electromagnetic fields that interfere with my portable radios or phone, it allows me to enjoy the wireless experience.

They are under my cabinets and I installed two of them On August 7, a counter light fixture was installed
3/5

The only hope I have is that it is a one-time occurrence In the past, I have maintained a LED halogen light for over a year in the 24/7 configuration. I will keep updating this review as necessary. It has failed again, another bulb that was installed on August 7 has failed. It was the 13th of August that led to the failure. There is only a slight possibility that it will last only 130 hours rather than the advertised 20,000 hours. It does not look good for this product. I am discouraged. There is no longer a light bulb in the socket installed on August 12. This is my last review. I will no longer be updating it. We can easily see that these bulbs are of no use to us. It is expected that the remaining bulbs will go out within a week or so. It is not recommended to use this product. In comparison to how easy it would be to replace these bulbs, returning the burned out ones would be.

It is not something I would buy again
3/5

In the first place, Amazon doesn't know how to handle shipping for In most cases, the package comes in a padded envelope and one or two parcels are broken upon delivery. A funny thing is that something very small and not at all fragile will be packed in a cardboard box when an envelope is all that is required. As far as I've seen, bulbs are usually damaged and come in padded envelopes. There was at least one bulb that was just a tiny bit too long and would not fit into the fixture. Afraid of breaking the plastic clips, I put them on a hard surface. Another bulb fit correctly so I grabbed another one. In my opinion, the quality of these bulbs is mediocre at best.

It is infuriating to be told again that T5 bulbs won't last
4/5

Here I sit, for the third time, looking for more bulbs for my under cabinet lights. It feels like just a few months ago that I did this. I forgot to do that. Now that I'm looking through my purchase history, I realize I've bought this exact set of bulbs twice. I bought one set in September of 2018, another in August this year. There is no lasting power in them.

PS. You can expect the box to arrive crushed if you order them. These two events took place each time.

This color has a very "warm" tone to it
3/5

In addition to the product, the packaging is also well thought out. I find this to be one of the nicer "made in China" products I have I was delighted with the price. It is especially rare to find a 6-pack for the same price as a single bulb at my local hardware store You can take a pack (luckily, they only have In my limited testing, I've only used 3 out of 6 bulbs, but they all lit up promptly and have consistent brightness. A third of the light color (3000k) consists of an orange that is extremely "warm" in color. A yellow color. Even though the white is almost too warm for me, it still beats the ghastly sunny white (hospital) I had before. We had a problem with one of the bulbs that just stopped working without warning. There was only one turn on, about eight times throughout the day for about an hour each time. There is no guarantee that this brand is reliable, so I'll stick with - Next time, we'll talk about brands.

One of the longest lives ever recorded for a snowflake! Despite its reputation as a source of cheap products, China has very high standards
3/5

The cost of replacing defective items by the truckload isn't a bargain when the consumer has to replace the whole lot. Made in China was the label on this item, which signified that garbage was.

There are zero working bulbs out of six
3/5

Please don't roll those dice! I'll get my money back, but no one is going to pay me for my time while I take half an hour to drag it back to the locker. BUY THESE, BUT DO NOT BUY IT.

There is no reasonable help from Amazon for a broken product
4/5

The glass tubes were all broken at the point where the metal ends met the metal ends. Considering the boxes were in good condition, it could only indicate there is some issue in China where the boxes are manufactured. I have updated My Amazon customer service experience was a positive one. We got an online person on chat who offered a refund without having to send back the broken bulbs after 15+ minutes. Using the automated process was a waste of time.
