Tools and Hardware Reviews of GE 21710-3 15-Watt (65W Equivalent) Energy Smart Floodlight Dimmable R30 Light Bulb, 3-PackCustomer Review: Work well, a few cons Summary: 4 Stars
These work well, for the most part. They are brighter then the 65W incandescent bulbs they replaced, but they take 5 mins or so to get that bright. They dim, but only about 50% or so, and in our case we can't turn the dimmer more then 70% off or they flicker. All in all, they do the job we wanted, run cooler then what they replaced, and since they stay on 24 hours a day in a business setting the warm-up period doesn't matter much to us.
Customer Review: finally a cf we can live with! Summary: 5 Stars
Maybe they've changed this bulb since those early reviews, we don't have any problem with warm-up time. The first time we turned it on the bulb was sort of dim and bluish, but after an hour or so it lit up bright with a nice warm glow. Now it comes on at the flick of the switch with no delay at all. The rate of dimming isn't quite as smooth as with the incandescents, you can't get it on as low, but other than that it's perfect for us. NO BUZZING!
