Customer Reviews

remember CFL is white light
I did a bunch of research at the home improvement sites to learn about these lights.

R30 is an indoor flood/spot light. RC30 means it's outdoors. R30 is the smaller of the two flood light sizes. Compared to my incandescent, the neck is a bit longer so may not be quite flush with your fixtures.

The light is quite white but brighter than the 65W that I replaced. Was not able to find a wattage greater than 16W for this CFL which I was looking for. I don't think GE or Sylvania makes a brighter than 16W for CFL for R30.

Initially when I turned them on, the light was dim, then I realized that it takes time for the light to brighten up. So I don't plan on using these in an entry/hallway since those lights tend to be on for only a short period of time.

Right now, I have these in the kitchen and will put them in the living room as well. Can't beat saving energy these days! But just be aware that the light is extremely white and you need to get used to them.

I bought some at a local hardware store and decided to order a few more 4-packs via Amazon. Too bad it'll take 3 to 5 weeks to get these, but it's a big savings.
