Lumens (light output)
This refers to the literal measure of the light-output of a particular light bulb, measured in the number of lumens.
Watts (Energy Used)
"Watts" is the term applied to the amount of energy required and used by a particular light bulb. It is an international system unit of power equal to one joule per second. Contrary to popular belief, the wattage of a bulb does not directly measure the brightness; the "lumens" of a light is what defines the actual light output.
Average Lifetime
This refers to an average lifetime rating based on large quantities in test groups. This testing takes into account usage of 3 hours per start for fluorescent lamps and 10 hours per start for HID lamps.
Volts
Voltage is a measure of electrical potential.
Bulb Type
|
|
The "Bulb Type" is typically a combination of the style of bulb as well as the width of the bulb. Usually, the first couple letters will indicate the type; "G" would indicate "Globe", "PAR" would indicate "Parabolic Reflector"... The numbers indicate the diameter of the light bulb in eighths of an inch; a "G40" would be a "Globe" style that is "5 inches" in diameter.
|
Base Type
|
The "Base" of a light bulb is the part that either screws or snaps into a receptacle. Base Type terminology may indicate common descriptive words like "Medium" or "Candelabra", or may even contain numeric codes that signify size and variety, like "E26" or "2GX13".
|
Filament Type
|
The filament is the style of fine wire that is heated electrically inside of an incandescent light bulb.
|
Color Temperature
Correlated Color Temperature (CCT) is a specification of the color appearance of a light bulb, relating its color to that of a reference source heated to a particular temperature, measured in degrees Kelvin (K). It generally measures the "warmth" or "coolness" of light source appearance.
CRI (Color Rendering Index)
CRI refers to the "Color Rendering Index" of a light bulb. CRI measures a light source and grades its ability to render the color of objects "correctly," as compared with a reference source with comparable color temperature. 100 is perfect rendering.
Length
This is sometimes referred to as MOL, or "Maximum Overall Length". It measures the absolute length of a light bulb, from the top of the bulb to the bottom of the base and is typically expressed in inches.
Width
Width refers to the complete diameter of the widest point of the light bulb.
Beam Angle
The beam angle refers to the width of the light beam coming from a reflector light bulb. The higher the number, the wider the beam spread.
# of Lamps
This refers to the number of Fluorescent or HID light bulbs that this particular ballast can light.
Bulb Type Used in Ballast
This refers to the style of light bulb that this particular ballast can light.

Very nice soft pink lamps. I bought several to have on hand as these are getting harder to find.

I am so happy to have found a reliable supplier of this product. I have an illness affecting my eyes and the soft yet variable light from this 3 way bulb bathes my home with a warm glow and is very easy on my eyes. I hope you will continue to offer this product - you have a committed and happy customer!

Ordered the 3-way bulbs for my lamps. I haven't had to use them yet. I love these Sylvania light bulbs. I stocked up again since the box store I usually purchased them at doesn't carry this color bulb anymore!? I can't imagine why they would discontinue this bulb!

I am using all 3 of the bulbs and really do like them. My living room, and enclosed lanai, is where I have them and they give the rooms a very soft and comfortable look and feel, so I give them 5 stars!

Excellent product. Nice, soft light that sets a great ambiance for the room. I cannot find these in any retail store , so was excited to find them here. This bulb is great for my adjustable lamps and the light is never glaring, even at the highest setting.

Love these light bulbs. You cannot find them in stores any longer and they give off the perfect soft light in a room. Not that white piercing light you get from so many bulbs. I will order again.

Stores in my area don't carry this bulb so I tried online and was pleasantly surprised at how easy it was to purchase. They were packed well so no damage when delivered.

I love pink light bulbs and have trouble finding them - and when I do happen to find them, they are usually really expensive. So I shopped online and found the best price was definitely eLightBulbs. They had a wonderful selection, too. My order arrived fast and I couldn't be happier with your company. I will gladly recommend that others try your products! Thank you very much.
p.s. others should try the pink - it makes the world look a little softer.

I am very disappointed in these bulbs. I ordered them to replace standard three way bulbs in three lamps. The standard bulbs were working perfectly, but I wanted the softer pink light. None of the bulbs perform as they should. All frequently fail to light at 50 watts-- in all three lamps. Because my older three way bulbs continue to work I am convinced that this is not a lamp failure.
