Verilux 36W Natural Spectrum Replacement Compact Bulb - Verilux CFML36VLX

I bashed my lamp on the corner of the table I was moving it onto because I’m wonderfully talented and possess natural grace. The replacement bulb arrived quickly and works like a charm. Pricey, though.Edit: The bulb I purchased didn’t turn on this year as I pulled it out of my closet and plugged it in. I noticed this tan color where the glass meets the fixture and began to investigate what looked sort of like cardboard. It easily came apart. I’m so disappointed and will not be buying a $50 replacement that won’t work, when the original worked for over 5 years and only stopped working when it was dropped on accident and broke the bulb.

Does the job, fit perfectly in my lamp with no trouble. Bright light that's great for an emergency light with my portable generator when power is out.

Works great. Fit well

Another low quality Verliux product. All of their products break! Do not purchase any Verliux product, I have had both Happy Lamps break after 1 year and the desk lamp broke after 6 months! This bulb separated from the base from just sitting on the counter. Cheaply made Chinese crap sold at high prices. Boooo to Verilux!

I decided to purchase a replacement bulb and it fit perfectly and was easy to swap out. The cost of the bulb was almost the same as purchasing a whole new light. No issues with the replacement bulb though. It works great.

Generally a purchaser of this product buys it as a replacement for one that has expired. The cost of this product is shocking and it needs to come with an installation guide with pictures, as a first time buyer will be befuddled as to how to go about changing it out. It is not intuitive as to what has to be removed and it is easy to lose a part of the lamp if too much is disassembled unnecessarily. This happened to me. I'm till waiting to find the alignment/hold down bracket I misplaced. I will say this though; due to a long life of the old lamp you can expect the same here , but I would not buy it again as it is never totally secured within the lamp and rattles around when moved.

It's hard to find the correct bulbs for my "light box" lamps, locally. This bulb is it and is readily available through Amazon!

It is too soon for me to speak on longevity. I found a lamp at a thrift store and bought this replacement bulb. I now have it on all day in my office.
