This review is from: Intermatic #ML7W4C 4PK 7W Clear Wedge Bulb (Tools & Home Improvement)

What's to say? These are conventional 7 Watt light bulbs for low voltage (12V) Malibu garden lights. They come in packs of four; they are rather more expensive than they ought to be; and they last months (maybe a year if you've got your voltage under strict control). It looks like Intermatic (maker of Malibu) have a patent on the socket of these bulbs. (Sigh.)

These are way cheaper than the official Malibu price. Remember that these bulbs do burn out, and get multiple packs to keep the shipping cost down. Two packs are already cheaper than buying local.

I looked at LED replacement lights, but they're clearly not "there" yet - $5-$10 per light (vs. $2.50 for 4), and LED lights are way, way dimmer than the 7W or 11W bulbs. I tried LED bulbs, and my wife said, "You've got to be kidding." We actually need to light up walkways. If you just need glowy mood lights, and you're willing to pay to feel good about yourself, go for the LEDs now. Otherwise, it'll be another year or three.
