5.0 out of 5 stars CFL Bug Light, July 10, 2009

Bulb drastically reduces attracted bugs. With normal CFL bulb on all night, had hundreds of bugs around light. With these bulbs only have less than 5 on most days around bulb at any one time.

Since I use a day light controller (note to use a photo-electric controller with a CFL bulb, you must find one specifically built to work with CFL bulbs) for my exterior garage lights and they are on each night, I wanted to ensure when I changed to bug lights for the summer they were also CFL bulbs. After only being able to locate a CFL encased in a yellow "shell" in my local stores I was able to find these CFL bug lights on line.

I had 40 watt equivalent white CFL bulbs in the winter and glad I went with the 60 watt equivalent CFL Bug lights, as the yellow coating does decrease actual light output.

This is the best CF bug light I have found yet. Attracts very few bugs. Much better than the Silvania and a million times better than the GE.

I have had this lamp in service for one month so far, about 340 hours. It operates from dusk to dawn, every night. The light from this lamp is a deep yellow unlike a pale yellow that comes from other lamps. While some bugs still seem to go to the lamp, there are about 90 percent less bugs around this one.
