Comments about Flashpoint Flashpoint Replacement Spiral Fluorescent Bulb, 70 Watts, 5500k, Equivalent Output of 300 Watts, Fits Standard Household Sockets, E26 - E27:

A high intensity compact fluorescent bulb. Runs cool and the daylight color temperature is very useful for supplementing daylight for indoor portraits. The bulb is large. In fact, this is the second one of these I've purchased from Adorama, and this new one is at least an inch longer and is larger in diameter than the first one I got. (I checked with a good light meter -- output from the two bulbs is within 1/10th of an f-stop.) The bulb extends beyond the front of a standard floodlight reflector. And you will probably need an inexpensive socket extender from an electrical supply house to get the bulb to screw into your floodlight reflector. The price is right, they last a long time, and you won't burn your hands with these bulbs -- if only they were smaller!

Comments about Flashpoint Flashpoint Replacement Spiral Fluorescent Bulb, 70 Watts, 5500k, Equivalent Output of 300 Watts, Fits Standard Household Sockets, E26 - E27:

Use the cool running lights for heat sensitive still life products and "no sweat" portraits. I use several at a time with a diffuser for soft lighting. I don't know about lifetime yet, but I wish they were slightly smaller. A plus is amount of light without blowing fuses, but I am not sure the output is quite as high as advertised.
