Customer Reviews
Very slow to reach full luminosity
I've been using CFL's for four years in several houses, but had not replaced floods with CFL's until I bought these. I'm accustomed to instant-on CFL's (except for the GE's which noticeably aren't.) These floods take a little over a second to turn on (measured.) That would be okay if they came on at full luminosity, but they don't. Instead they come on at about 50% with about half the bulb unlit. I just measured the time it takes for a string of six to reach full output: 45 seconds for the first bulb and a 1:45 for the last with the rest distributed throughout the range. The light given off is acceptable in hue...when it finally comes.
