The glass tube of the bulb is more squared than the one that I replaced (which had a more rounded end), but it fit the lamp properly. My lamp has a dimmer and the dimmer continued to work properly with this replacement bulb.

I suspect there's a reason for the cheap price of this bulb. I very much doubt it is a full spectrum bulb. The light is "icier," and unlike the original light, it doesn't cast a bluish tinted light that you can see at night. The light also doesn't feel as comfortable for reading.

If it isn't full spectrum, the description on the packaging is extremely deceptive. It says it's a replacement for a variety of sunlight lamps, but it doesn't say anywhere that it is actually a full spectrum light. Even more deceptive, it shows a full spectrum rainbow bar, but in small script, it refers only to the light savings compared to a regular light bulb.

If having a full spectrum light is important to you, I don't think you'll be satisfied with this light.

I did not know if I had ordered the correct light bulbs and this merchant was very helpful and my purchase was successful. I will order from this merchant again.

Needed a replacement bulb for one accidently broken in my lamp. This one worked very well, although I thought the shipping/handling was a little too much.

the bulb did not work. contacted seller, more than once, to inform of the problem because it says you cant return without the authorization number. I never received a response. Still have the defective bulb sitting here.

This is an inexpensive replacement for my desk lamp. Bulb is bright and works well. However, it is definitely not the Sunlight spectrum that the original was. This is just white fluorescent.

I don't mind too much. Its just a desk lamp.

The bulb arrived in a timely fashion, but was defective and didn't work. After notifying the seller, they refunded my money without question. I would defintely do business with them again.

In order to fit my Verilux lamp, I had to use a file to remove the side of two tabs on the base of the bulb. It only took about 10 minutes, but initially it was impossible to get the bulb into the lamp. After this small operation, the bulb fit fine and it works great. I think it was worth the $15 savings compared to the bulb from Verilux. Sorry I can't include a photo.

Works great. Got these for our natural sunlight lamps. Bulbs are hard to find in our area. Contacted the Manufacturer about replacement bulbs, which were more than Amazon's price and no free shipping. Glad I always check Amazon first!

Perfect mate for my Velux floor lamp. No modification was necessary and the bulb worked well on the three way swith (low/off/high). I plan to buy this bulb again when I need a replacement for my 27 watt Velum floor lamp.
