Great Light Bulb November 22, 2008 Works as advertised. I wish it lasted longer than 20 hours, but still I get a lot of Usage out of it. Cheap enough to replace if you buy the 6 pack, but I am a little ticked off that I cant seem to buy the 500W version in a 6 pack. Light is bright and nice color for photo, video applications. I use mine for Video.
Short lifespan February 14, 2007 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
If you're considering buying this bulb, just be aware that it has a lifespan of 20 hours. Those specs aren't included here, but if you do some research on other websites selling bulbs, you'll find it's true. I haven't found a better option although I've ordered some fluorescent bulbs that provide a similar lumens (which for this bulb is something like 6500). I know that the light from the fluorescent bulb will be cooler, but it's lifespan is 10,000 hours. (I use the light to take photos but also as a source of light to paint by so I'm looking for something that has the light of an incandescent but also a longer life).
Not sure of what the problem was. February 7, 2007 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
When I turned on the lamp hood, it "blew". So, I removed the 250w bulb, replaced it with a 100w bulb and its ok. Dont know why the 250w bulb was a problem. OK, I guess I wasted my money.
