Great price for Fluorescent bulbs, and everything arrived in one piece. The four that I used worked with no problems, and was the brand that was advertised. They’re Philips bulbs so I expect them to last.

The original delivery was damaged by the shipping company. They replaced the order quickly, no problems with the bulbs. Inexpensive fluorescent bulbs that work great.

Over the years ive used 4-5 boxes of these from Amazon ! firstly their always packed to the max have never had any of the bulbs broken, maybe overpacked would be a better statement, great value as always !

Lights were shattered. Glass spilled out of the box onto our property. Had to safely dispose of box and lights. Seller reimbursed cost. Good lights. Have used in the past. Horrible delivery.

You can't beat the price that this supplier has. I buy quite a few bulbs over the course of a year and this is a pretty good deal. All the bulbs come packaged tightly and I didn't have any broken ones. All the bulbs worked well and they were all the same length and fit my fixtures correctly.

Great product: very bright, super white light, Unfortunately, is packaged to be opened like a suitcase, with the bulbs lying flat in 2 rows of 5... making it precarious to store vertically once opened if you only need a few at a time.

Dirt used to be the usual reason a fluorescent lamp wouldn't light when it was humid. In F40 needs about 200 volts end-to-end to strike the arc. Damp dirt could cause enough electrical leakage to draw the voltage below 200. I could usually fix a troublesome tube by washing it in the shower.My house uses nine F40T12 tubes. Most had been in use more than 20 years. A tube that's failing usually gives plenty of notice by blackening at one or both ends. It may continue to work for years, but it's fading away. Some of mine had blackening, and one day, one would no longer start. I ordered from Amazon because, not having replaced a tube in years, I forgot I had a spare. I'm glad I forgot!The manufacturer used a simple box with a separator at each end to keep the bulbs from hitting each other. Amazon wrapped the box in the kind of bubble wrap that's a little over 1mm thick. and put that box loose in a larger box. It looked disastrous, but the tubes seemed OK. I didn't know fluorescent tubes were so tough!The old CW (cool white) produced a lot of lumens. It was efficient for reading, but the Color Rendering Index was only 62. Mostly green and yellow, it was gloomy at low levels. Warm white colors were too orange for me. Daylight colors were too blue. I preferred CWX. It was less efficient than CW, but at 78, it had a better CRI than other colors. I found it more cheerful, and blues and reds showed better.When Amazon's description called these bulbs Daylight Deluxe, I remembered the old Daylight, which also had a color temperature of 6500K. The CRI was 58. I thought I wouldn't like the color of these new tubes, but at least they'd light when I flipped the switch. I was so pleasantly surprised that I found the Philips data sheet. The CRI is 90!I replaced the failed tube. Then I replaced a CWX with a darkened end. Being new, the Philips was brighter. I also saw a better color. It was such an improvement that I got a stepladder and replaced all tubes with blackening. I may end up replacing tubes without blackening because I prefer the color.I had occasional failures to start in the bathroom and the kitchen, two rooms where the humidity is sometimes high. The bulbs looked clean, and washing was not a lasting solution. That left one possibility.Glass is hydrophilic. In humid conditions, enough water molecules can stick to make the surface damp. Fluorescent tubes used to have a coating to repel moisture. It seems these tubes have not been treated. Rain-x is a water-repellent coating for windshields. I have some Rain-x somewhere, but the first thing I spotted was an old can of silicone spray intended to make clothing and leather water repellent.I wiped some onto the two bulbs exposed to high humidity. After a year, during a rainy spell when indoor humidity reached 78%, I had trouble again. Dust had stuck to the coating. By now I'd found my Rain-x. I washed off the old coating and applied it. I haven't had any trouble since.
