Overview

The GE 74201 Energy Smart CFL bulb is a straightforward energy-saving replacement for 75-watt incandescent bulbs. Drawing only 20 watts, each bulb puts out 1,250 lumens of Soft White light at 2700K—warm enough to feel comfortable in living rooms, bedrooms, and hallways without the harsh tone of daylight-rated bulbs. The T3 spiral form factor and standard E26 medium base mean these screw directly into the vast majority of household lamps, ceiling fixtures, and enclosed fixtures without adapters or special sockets.

Sold as a two-pack, the GE 74201 is positioned for practical, everyday use. Each bulb is rated for 8,000 hours, which translates to several years of service under normal usage patterns and cumulative energy savings that GE estimates at up to $44 over the life of the bulbs. The packaging has been redesigned to be easier to open and more environmentally friendly. Buyers should note that these are non-dimmable CFLs and contain a small amount of mercury, so proper recycling is important at end of life.
