ALZO CFL Light Bulb 27W Reviews

I give up on Alzo

First I bought nine of these for my Impact Octacool 9 and only two of those worked. After I returned them and received a refund, I decided to order 20 so that I'd be sure to have seven working bulbs to complete my Octacool 9 with high CRI Alzo CFLs. Well, I received them today and literally 18 of the 20 bulbs did not work. I was in disbelief. After buying 29 of these, I managed to get four that work.  I love B&H and have been using them for decades, but they need to send someone into the stockroom to test the ones they have so they don't waste hundreds of dollars shipping them to people and then paying to have them immediately shipped back. I'm not sure of any high CRI alternative to Alzo for CFLs, so I guess I'll just be giving up on fluorescents and switching to LED now.

These Are GREAT!

Please disregard my prior review as I posted it before I shot a video with them. I have five of these in my kitchen's recessed light fixtures. These are large. The spiraled tube is thicker and longer, thus sticks out of the light fixture a bit. They are definitely bright white. Along with the Alzo 45W bulbs used in our soft light boxes, we have plenty of daylight white for our videos. This was the first set of videos my wife did not need to color correct, just had to modify brightness/contrast a little. Much improved over using a mix of the warmer light bulbs.

I have a promaster 6" reflector that came with light tent. Is this the correct bulb for that?
Asked by: eileen
Currently we do not stock any Promatser products. So we can not try it out. However it really appears the bulbs will work just fine in your fixture.
