5.0 out of 5 stars It works great., March 12, 2008

By	Jay L. Ring "Jay L.Ring" (WA State) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I purchased six fluorescent black light bulbs. They all worked very well with the black light posters I ordered soon afterword. They are not a bit like the black incandescent bulbs of the past. These fluorescent black lights work every bit as well as the tubes with the exception that they screw into yout average light socket. I plan to purchase a rack lighting system and filling it with some more fluorescent black lights. I'm very satisfied with my purchases of these lights.
Sincerely,
Adrian Alexis

5.0 out of 5 stars Very nice blacklight, April 8, 2008

By	Charles B. Naumann - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Forget those silly deep purple incandescent bulbs, these are real black light that fit into normal light bulb sockets. One word of warning, most glass and plastic covers block the UV but still allow the visible purple light through. It is best to use these bulbs bare.

2.0 out of 5 stars Something's not right here, April 1, 2009

By	Bill Nicholas - See all my reviews

I'm reading all these positive reviews and saying to myself, Something's not right here. I bought one of these and it DOES NOT work well. Sure, if you compare it to an "incandescent bulb," which too many other reviewers suspisciously do, it is marginally better. But if you compare it to a full size black light fluorescent tube, this CF version is sorely lacking. This bulb, used with or without a shade, does not make white, like your teeth or on your clothes, glow brightly. It only marginally makes bright colors pop. The black light effects are not obvious; you have to really look for them. If you think you're going to use these at a party and everyone freaks out, forget it. I think the problem is the bulb is too bright. You would think it makes sense that a fluorescent light, even in CF form, would make black light work better, but it is a poor substitution for "real" black light fluorescent tubes.
