Cheap GE Lighting 75409 Reveal Spiral CFL 10-Watt (40-watt replacement)

Customer Ratings:

It may be a bit preemptive to review these light bulbs...but it's been a few weeks, and I have had no issues. The light is bright but not harsh. In other lamps, I have had the same bulbs in for the last 4 years, so far so good!

The only thing is that you can probably find it cheaper in store. At the time, I was not able to go out and get them, and with amazon prime, it ended up being easier to just buy them from here.

I have been using incandescent Reveal light bulbs in my house for 5 years. I wanted to purchase CFL bulbs to help save energy costs, but was never happy with their color. Some are too white and look industrial, others were too blue and gave a weird glow to a room. The Reveal CFLs solve that problem by giving a very pure color of light that is similar to their incandescent counterparts. Whether you are a fan of the regular Reveal bulbs, or have never tried them, I definitely recommend these. I think the color of the light is the most natural of all the CFLs I have tried.

I would recommend NOT purchasing them on Amazon as they are overpriced. I have found them on sale for around 10 dollars for a two pack at many big box retailers (Target, Lowes, etc.).

I have these installed in a four light bathroom fixture. The overall brightness and color is way better than the standard GE brand CFL's that these bulbs replaced. The major problem I have is the loud hum that these bulbs make when powered on, so if you buy them don't plan on putting them in a light fixture that you have to sit next to for long periods of time because it would get really annoying quick.

Honest reviews on GE Lighting 75409 Reveal Spiral CFL 10-Watt (40-watt replacement)

The brightness of this bulb looks on par with a reveal 60 watt incandescent since the coating on those reduces their brightness quite a bit. The color is better than other CFL's I've used but it could use more red. These are better than most LED but not as good as the new breed of expensive high CRI LEDs.

Like some have mentioned already, CFL bulbs can be too harsh and bright. I found the GE Reveal CFL's seem to have gotten very close to the incandescent version. I still use the Reveal incandescent in other lamps in the house that are not used as much, but I put a 40w and a 60w in a living room lamp that is frequently in use. I am satisfied with the light it distributes, plus there are times I only put on the 60w light instead of both bulbs together.

It is very tough to find the 40w Reveal CFL in stores. 60w and 100w are not an issue, but I specifically wanted 40w for my household purposes.

If you have any doubts about these Reveal CFL's, don't. I do believe you will be satisfied!
