Saving the Planet December 3, 2008 Just bought a few sets of these for all our Candelabra base fixtures in our house (smaller than the usual light-bulb fixtures). These give off a pretty soft-white color and work well. The only issues is that they take a minute or so to warm up to full potential and are a bit bigger than the previous, regular 40w bulbs we were using. Otherwise, 9w vs 40w is a huge dip in our energy consumption ... especially since we have a candle-like structure that uses 6 of them! (54w vs 240w!!).
Good green product August 12, 2008 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
It works well if it has about 2 minutes to warm up and get bright after a few minutes. I would like to see a CF candelabra bulb that puts out the equivalent lumins to a 60W candelabra incandescent.
Brighter than I thought August 7, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
These work great. They are much brighter than I had imagined. They take a little while to warm up so they wouldn't be good in a place where you're just turning lights on for a brief second or two. I'd buy them again.
CFL replacement for incandescent Candelabra bulb July 31, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I purchased 10 of these bulbs to place into a Chandelier. These bulbs are a bit too bright and create a lot of glare. I went out to Costco and purchased 10 7 watt bulbs from FEIT and was much happier with the light output. The light output is much brighter than the 25 watt incandescent bulbs that it came with and there is no glare.
I have used three of the 9 watt bulbs that I tried in the Chandelier in my desk lights using the standard base adapters and I am very happy with the light output. Since the desk lamps use elongated bulbs, these CFL bulbs worked perfectly and provide a very bright working light.
I have used the rest of the bulbs in my coach lights on the house and I am very happy with the light output.
Bottom line, these lights work well, but are very bright and will cause glare in a glass chandelier.
Light is too artificial June 26, 2008 1 out of 5 found this review helpful
The light from these CFL bulbs is too white, not soft enough. Does not work well with a candelabra application...
