5 out of 5 stars Great 27 watt replacement bulb at a great price!   May 17, 2007
  5 out of 5 found this review helpful

I was really pleased to find this replacement bulb and at a great price. The light is so natural and I found it lasted as long as the original. I am an avid reader, and I find the light from this 27-watt replacement bulb reduces eyestrain and even helps lift my spirits on dark or rainy days.Grandrich EZ Reader 27-Watt Fluorescent Bulb #PL-27W


5 out of 5 stars No problems at all.   September 12, 2006

I have had a Grandrich floor lamp for a couple of years. Went through one bulb in that time. The last time it flickered and died, I ordered a replacement bulb from Amazon. That one still didn't work. It turned out to be a bad electrical outlet in my apartment. After the manager replaced the outlet...no problems! I don't want to say that others with bad results had electrical problems, but that was true in my case. I will not hesitate to order replacement bulbs from Amazon.


1 out of 5 stars this bulb doesn't work   February 11, 2006

I bought this Grandrich light from Amazon and I turned it on once for 20 minutes and it died. So much for the 10,000 hours longer than most bulbs. I won't buy this product and I'm thinking twice about Amazon for selling it.


1 out of 5 stars Life is NOT 10,000 hours   February 2, 2006

10,000 hours = 416 days. In other words, more than a year.

I bought this replacement bulb on Oct 6, 2005. Today is the first of Feb. 2006--it died. Assuming that I never turned off the lamp during those 3 months, my math tells me that in order for the bulb to burn out I must have had the lamp on for 111 hours/day for five months. (111 hours x 30 days x 3 months = 9990 hours.) Only, I never quite lived a 111 hour day yet.

If I figure I used the lamp for no more than 6 hrs/day for those 3 months. I only got 540 hours out of it. However you look at it, it seems this bulb missed the mark on the 10,000 in a premature death.
