Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of LongStar 00169 - FE-IS-40W/50K Twist Medium Screw Base Compact Fluorescent Light Bulb
Customer Review: Very, very bright light
Summary: 4 Stars
I have little experience with CFL bulbs. In my home office I like to use full spectrum bulbs, and so I decided to try this product when my other bulbs gave out. My previous experience with CFL bulbs has been that they tend to be not very bright, so I bought these thinking that it would provide me with a bright workspace--which I like. After putting 3 of them in a fixture and turning the fixture on, I feel like I am working on the sun. Or perhaps on a surgery table in an ER. To try to look directly at the fixture (which has exposed bulbs) actually hurts my eyes the light is so bright. I'll continue to use these bulbs, but I'm going to switch out to just 1 of these along with 2 at a lower wattage.
The form factor of the bulb provides a very large base as was noted by another reviewer. Overall the size of this bulb is much larger than a traditonal format bulb.
I am not giving the bulb a 5 star review because of the sound emitted by the bulb when illuminated. Some may not notice it, and it's the kind of thing that over time I expect one would get used to, but the bulb emits a very high pitched "electric sound" when illuminated. Perhaps with only one bulb it would not be noticed, but when 3 of them are combined in a light fixture less than 6 feet away, you definitely get noise that can be annoying.
