Product Description
Light up your home with Globe Enersaver bulbs and save in energy costs. With a growing concern for reducing energy consumption, Globe's compact fluorescent bulbs are a must in every home. CFLs use approximately 70% less energy than incandescent bulbs and produce the same light output. One CFL bulb lasts from 8,000 to 10,000 hours or up to 10 years. This saves you money in energy costs and bulb purchases when compared to regular incandescent bulbs.

 florescent light bult July 25, 2008
Sure they do save on electricity and last longer however people are not seeming to mention that they contain toxic mercury, which can be ingested or inhaled when they break. Also nobody ever talks about how florescent lights are not natural lighting and can cause seasonal depression or SAD. I will stick with my full spectrum natural lighting or open the shades , its alot less toxic to my health.
Not good... July 13, 2008
I currently have these bulbs, but yet I received an email from a family member letting me know that these bulbs contain mercury, very dangerous. If dropped you have to go through specific directions to clean it up as well as disposal if they do go out.
I won't be buying anymore, even though they do last a long time. :( I'm too clumsy to worry about the mercury.
 Great small fluorescent bulb July 11, 2008
This fluorescent bulb comes in a small form factor (this is ultra-mini). Definitely smaller than a normal light bulb, and purportedly will save you $34/bulb over the life of the bulb.
After reading some of the reviews here, I tried out all the bulbs when they arrived, just to make sure that they didnt break on the ship over. All the bulbs worked (despite the skimpy padding in the box), so no complaints here!
Very Good Light for the Value June 21, 2008
Bulbs work very good in standard light fixtures. Comes on instantly though it takes a few seconds to come to full brightness. A little brighter than other CFLs that claim their the same as a 60W incandescent. Shipment of 12 each came very well packed. I used some of the bulbs in my ceiling fan lights (ones with no remote control, need dimmable bulbs for those).
Perfect for vanity lights May 30, 2008
I got these to go in the vanity lights over our mirror in the master bath, hoping they would be cooler on hot summer mornings than the regular bulbs, and they're great! Their light is more neutral, which helps in make-up choices, and they don't radiate heat like having six 60-watt bulbs do, so I can blow dry without the room getting too warm. The energy savings is just icing on the cake!
