          In this economy I have to look for ways to save money. These bulbs do that, I don't have to replace as often and my electric bill has gone down.

            I have purchased "Energy Star" products before and was less than satisfied, but this bulb is great! Great light, cool to the touch and a bargain...

                      • Handling of a broken bulb
                      • Too big for fixture
                      • Too yellow

                        The light is too yellow; I will buy a bulb with whiter light next time. The bulb is too long to fit under the shade (ceiling light). Finally managed to loosen shade enough so it doesn't touch the bulb. And the half page of disposal instructions--two pages if you break one. Congress should be ashamed forcing us to buy these bulbs, and from a foreign country at that.

                            A:

                            GE does not recommend using regular CFL bulbs with dimmer switches, as it may shorten the life of the bulb and it will also nullify the bulb's warranty. Currently, we do not carry any CFL bulbs that will work with dimmer switches. However, we may be able to special order one for you. Please contact us at 800-333-3330 for further assistance.
