The only place I could find this replacement bulbFeb 27, 2010

This review is more a testiment to Amazon then the Bulb. The bulb works which is all that I need, but the fact that I bought the light fixture and had to go to Amazon to get a replacement tells you something. They have everything you need and usually below any comptitive sites price, WITH shipping.

EASY REPLACEMENTNov 03, 2011
By T. Barnett When our overhead bathroom fixture went dark after 6 years, at first we couldn't even figure out how to get into the fixture to replace the circular fluorescent tube inside. A trip to the hardware store to look at similar fixtures took care of that. Once we got the fixture apart and took the tube back to the hardware store, we learned that they didn't carry this particular tube. Tried two other big-box stores in town as well as smaller, local ones - nope. Amazon, of course, had it. The original clips had become brittle and one had broken so we ordered those as well; then, after reading a few reviews, decided we might as well replace the ballast, too, just in case. Everything arrived quickly and in perfect condition, and it was easy to install.
I almost gave it only 4 stars, because our original bulb was 3500K but, in researching the differences in light "color" between the 3500K and this 2850K, I learned that the lower number is a bit "warmer" and the higher number "cooler" and "brighter white." This was the overhead light for a large bath area (tub, shower and dressing), and I thought "warmer" sounded good for that application. Well, now I really wish I'd replaced it with the same as original; the "warmer" light gives a yellowish tone to everything and, to me, looks dim and dingy. But that's not the fault of Amazon.com, the seller or the bulb itself; I made a choice and it turned out to be the wrong one.

Could not locate anywhere else!Jul 16, 2010

A light is a light, more or less.
I have three ceiling lights in my kitchen. When one went out I headed out to my neighborhood Lowes with bad light in tow for recycling. They did not have these. So I went to Home Depot, nothing. Then to my local neighborhood hardware store - nothing.
Needless to say - thank God for Amazon and my Prime membership free shipping!
Worked well. Came in very good timeJan 14, 2012

This type of light seems to be in very short supply so after one supplier sent one that got lost in the mail and sent a second that was returned to them broken they were not able to supply. This vendor did not have that many but I was very happy to see it on the doorstep when I got home and have it work when I plugged it in. I just hope that when I have to replace it again I can still find it.
