26W Triple Tube Compact Fluorescent Bulb, 2700K Warm White, 4 Pack | GX24Q-3 4-pin Plug-in Base, 1800 Lumens, Electronic Ballasts, Replaces Sylvania 20879, Philips 458240 and GE 97614

Good price, worked just as expected, most adequate lighting. Depending on how long they last I may purchase more.

BACKSTORY - A few years ago I retrofitted my overhead bathroom lighting with a couple of high-end fixtures from a major home improvement store. I didn't realize it at the time but the store and its website did not stock the replacement lights in their inventory. I was forced to buy replacement lights at a local electrical supply company for $$$ and never could get the color temperature I wanted. This product [(Pack of 4) 26 Watt Triple Tube - GX24Q-3 (4 Pin) Base - 2700K Warm White - CFL Light Bulb - Replaces Sylvania)] is the perfect replacement for me costing only 1/4 of the price I had been previously paying. Additionally, the vendor supplied good information regarding the color temperature of the lights and I was able to get the exact light that I've wanted for years. I will be ordering more. Check your fixture base and/or the base of the lamp you are replacing before ordering. Some of the lights in this category have directly opposed mounting pins in the base. This particular light base has opposing but offset pins (see photo); again, exactly what I was looking for.

When the lights first arrived I was worried because of how it was packaged. 4 bulbs in one of those yellow padded envelopes. Seems like a very poor decision on the way to ship something so fragile. But to my delight all the bulbs work. Now onto the lights themselves. There have been some talk about if these bulbs are “instant on” or if there is a “warm up” to reach full brightness. I can tell you that there is a short warm up, something like 5 seconds. So while not completely instant on, the warm up time is very short. I will say that this bulbs are bright. The description says “1200 lumens” which matches the same lumens as other bulbs I have. However, the box says 1800 lumens so they are actually slightly brighter than my other bulbs. This wouldn’t be a problem if I was only using these bulbs in one area but they are mixed in with my older bulbs. So in my kitchen you can tell which are the new 1800 lumens bulbs and which are the old 1200 lumens bulbs. The color temperature (2700K) is a match but just noticeably brighter. For the price, this bulbs are a good value. I personally don’t like these 4 pin type bulb (G24/GX24) because the bulbs tend to be (relatively) expensive and they don’t last anywhere near as long as they claim (only got 3 years out of my previous bulbs). Lets see how close I get to the 11 year claim on these bulbs.

Very nice warm light.

These bulbs worked great as replacement for oem lights. The color is as described and easy to install. Have ordered these multiple times as lights need replaced throughout the house.

Is lasts usually about 3 months. It is a cheap product hence might be economical

Whoever invented these lights should not be inventing… having said that, this is a much better deal than Lowe’s and all the lights worked when I installed them! My wife is happy that all bulbs match.

These bulbs are a bit shorter than the original 18 year old bulbs that replaced in a ceiling light. They work just fine.

Good product but was not happy about having to pay additional import charges after import charges were included in the price
