These lights are quality, way better than what the equipment initially came with. Very pleased!
Pros: brilliant, easy on the eyes, cool temp
Cons: a bit too long for lighting fixture

Describe Yourself: Occasional Photographer
Excellent lighting - brilliant, long lasting
Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Pros: Priced correctly
Cons: none at this time
Best Uses: Photographic lighting
Describe Yourself: Photo Enthusiast
I purchased a 45 watt CFL and upon receipt found the fluorescent tube loose within the base. I called customer support and explained what I received. ALZO digital shipped a replacement CFL within one day. They did not request the defective CFL to be returned. They believed what I said. Imagine a company with competitive prices and service after the sale. Sounds like a winning combo to me.
Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Pros: Good performance and color for the lumens and money
Cons: None
Best Uses: Video and color corrected photography with a POS
Describe Yourself: Occasional Photographer
I am using it for video in a DIY softbox. The lights are a little large but the same size as other 45 w CFLs. However, you can actively use them for video either as fill light or as a key with DIY barn doors. I would recommend as the color is right on and would certainly buy again. Just be sure to manually white balance.
Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Pros: great price, flexible application
Best Uses: stills, studio, portrait
Describe Yourself: Photo Enthusiast
Using these bulbs in a photo booth application and they provide rich color on the subjects. Currently running 2 bulbs and they alloy me to shoot an f2.8 at 1/40th at about 1.5 meters through a diffuser. I will probably add a third bulb for a faster shutter. Cool running and low noise is also nice. Cannot comment on longevity as they have not been put through there paces time wise, but they deliver performance wise.
