My first bulb was installed in Dec 2007, and is still running fine as of Feb 2008. However, I installed my second bulb on a different socket (on the same circuit) 2 weeks ago, and it has already burned out. I called Feit to complain, and they insisted that they could not help me out because my bulbs don't have the model number printed on their base. After offering to read off the model number that's printed on my box (ie, 50PAR20/QFL), they were very reluctant to accept this info. Strange. Anyway, after ~10 mins or so, they eventually stated that they'll ship me a replacement, and that it should arrive in 4 to 6 weeks. Yup, 4 to 6 weeks! A Final Warning: Feit informed me that they don't normally offer replacements for bulbs purchased through online vendors. I guess I should consider myself lucky?

Amazon had the best price. I looked at local stores, all had atleast listed these bulbs at twice the price. I am glad, I used the bundle, range hood, filters and bulbs.

This will be a boring review, but it is a review of a light bulb. What can you expect? At any rate, shipping was prompt, the bulbs are as described, and the product works just fine.

Although they were packed very well, one bulb arrived broken. The outside was intact but the inside rattled like small screws inside a rusty tin can. I don't think it was damaged in shipment as the box was completely intact and packed with foam peanuts. Now comes the horrible return process. I just don't think I should have bought light bulbs by mail!

I just purchased these halogen floods for my new range hood which came without any bulbs. I like the 130 volt rating for longer life when operated at 120 volts. I needed 2 but purchased 4 for the free shipping and for spares. They are great so far and cost less than purchasing 120 volt bulbs locally (130 volt rated bulbs not locally available).
