Tried a number of fluorescent replacements and, as expected, none were are as good as incandescent. Slow to start and weird color. However, the GE 26 W Energy Smart floods are as good as any and better than most. Since nine bulbs burn most of the time here, the energy savings are large, and well worth it. Bulbs came promptly and in good shape. However, they were individually ensconced in heavy plastic shells and then further wrapped in a huge amount of plastic bubble. For people trying to be more environmentally responsible, this waste is very dismaying, which is why my rating is three rather than four stars. ### ⭐ Lasted About Four Months *by B***N on Reviewed in the United States on October 14, 2012* I ordered this in June and installed it over the work area in my kitchen. By mid-October, it's dead! It's true that I leave that light on all the time because I come home through the kitchen and almost always after dark. That's maybe 2,160 hours. The nine year claimed life at four hours/day would 365 * 9 * 4 = 13,140, so this (expensive) flood light lasted 16% of its claimed lifetime. It was installed indoors, in a ceiling fixture, so no vibration or physical abuse. It should have done a lot better.I bought two. Maybe the next one will be better. I hope so.At the moment, I believe that CF bulbs are not net savers of energy. Short lifetimes and high energy cost to manufacture mean this bulb may have consumed more total energy than a comparable incandescent.Edit: I must have been very tired (or it was very dark!) because my arithmetic was wrong. Now fixed. ### ⭐⭐⭐ Light bulbs brighten your day *by D***N on Reviewed in the United States on March 23, 2010* I ordered the wrong size bulb base so I had to send them back - they were very easy with the return but a little steep with the re-stocking and shipping charges - so order with them for sure just make sure you order right! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/9183860-ge-47479-26-watt-90-watt-equivalent-energy-smart-floodlight](https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/9183860-ge-47479-26-watt-90-watt-equivalent-energy-smart-floodlight) --- *Product available on Desertcart Kuwait* *Store origin: KW* *Last updated: 2026-05-19*
