3.0 out of 5 stars good bulbs badly packaged, December 7, 2007

This review is from: Verilux 13 Watt Natural Spectrum Spiral Compact Fluorescent Bulbs, 2 Pack (Health and Beauty)

The bulb gives light which is not as yellowish as standard soft white bulbs, improving the readability of written text. The bulbs themselves are very compact, slightly shorter than a standand incandescent bulb. Turn on time is less than half a second.

The two bulbs come in a container made of thin cardboard that offers little protection. Both the original shipment and the replacement shipment each had a broken bulb. The bulbs do contain small amounts of mercury which is toxic. They probably should be ordered separately so as to lessen the chance of them being damaged by other items in the shipment and prevent mercury contamination of the other items.

I chose this bulb because of the full spectrum and the extra light it would give. After installing two bulbs I turned on my two table lamps in the living room. I wasn't quite expecting such a white-blue light. My plants are going to love it, my mood will be given a lift by it, but the romance factor of the room just went Martian.

For a full-time student and part-time teacher, good light that doesn't contribute to eyestrain is critical. Add the needs of warding off the pall of long, dark, gloomy winters in a rented vanilla box in a student town with no car. I used to feel tired and sleepy all the time in winters, and always craved "more light." Answer:le lamp. I'm really glad I purchased these bulbs. No eyestrain, no sleepiness/tiredness; in fact, the only 'negative' effect is that they actually keep me awake and alert for far too long:) I have to step away from them about 2 hours before bedtime in order to feel naturally sleepy. But I really couldn't care less because they do the real job.
