These worked great, nice white light, good coverage. I was happy, until the first one burnt out after about 10 days of use (about 6 hours a day). I thought maybe that one was just bad, until the second one burned out after another 4 days of use. After removing them, I found that the base of each was leaking a viscous ozone-smelling fluid. Another quality product made in China for GE.
I guess they might last 6 years if you never use them. I do NOT use a dimmer, so that isn't an issue. I ended up just spending the extra money for LED floodlights and have stopped using CFLs for exterior lighting.

Bought several for outdoor lighting. Beware of the very wide base just above where the bulb is screwed into the light socket. My outdoor lights have shields that protect the bulb, and in this case the shield base width was not wide enough to allow this bulb to fit. Other notes 1) takes 2-4 minutes to reach full brightness 2) light color is nice & warmBest Deals for GE 21739 26-watt(90-watt equivalent) Energy Smart Outdoor
I purchased two of these GE, made in China, bulbs. They both burned out in no time at all; days. GE is trying to turn a profit, but has lost this customer for all GE products... after a failed stove and now failed bulbs, I have given up on GE products altogether.Honest reviews on GE 21739 26-watt(90-watt equivalent) Energy Smart Outdoor
Bought two of them from Amazon in December. First one stopped working after a month and the second one after a month and a half.Was fine while they worked. Took a while to warm up. One of them warmed up faster than the other which had a purplish hue to it.
Now I am trying to see if GE will honor their warranty. Going to avoid GE bulbs as they dont seem to be good quality.
