Fill out the form and an experienced lighting specialist will respond. Call during working hours and someone will answer. I may answer the phone at 5am or 9:30 pm, on a Sunday…or I may be playing ping pong with the family. We will call you back. I’m currently writing this section on a plane to Vegas with wifey. We left the kids at home with Grandma.

Extending lamp life should be the #1 objective when manufacturing a light bulb. A shield that protects the filament from shock, vibration and surges will make your fluorescents last longer. Major brands DO NOT use a cathode guard shield becuase they want your bulbs to burn out. They have you believing that light bulbs just don't last very long. There is a better way and there are better bulbs. If you want the best quality light than we need to use really good phosphors and if you want your bulbs to last longer, you need togher components. You need the GoodBulb way.

Is 4000 Kelvin the best color of light for your business or home?

4000 Kelvin fluorescent is a great compromise between a relaxing 3000 to 3500 kelvin light bulb and the bright white 5000 kelvin which is recommended in office and commercial lighting. We are seeing more homeowners request 4000 kelvin since the home is now an office, a gym and sometimes a playground. 4000 Kelvin fluorescents will appear brighter than your old halogens. 4000 Kelvin is used in schools across the country and this is a huge mistake. If you want to reduce eye strain, headaches and glare. If you want to be more productive, attentive and alert, then order 5000 Kelvin fluorescents.

The color of light for an incandescent is 2700 Kelvin. 2700 Kelvin is the spectrum of light with a strong mixture of yellow and orange elements. This bulb is made for relaxing spaces.The color of light for a Fluorescent is whatever you want it to be.

The 360-degree beam spread produced by a fluorescent light bulb allows a business to control cleaner light that highlights the work being done underneath them. For the past 50 years every business has invested in fluorescent lighting. Lighting that contains mercury and phosphors which need to be recycled. Most fluorescent light bulbs end up in the dumpster. I’ll bet you a Portillo’s Hot Dog there was approximately 100 million fluorescent light bulbs throughout the stores in Chicago. 100 million bulbs burning in a city that would only last 1 to 2 years. The General, Phillip, Slvania, and Smelly Feit all bought matching gigantic yachts. They could have manufactured a fluorescent that lasted 10 to 15 years. Americans had NO IDEA that they were being deceived. That the deceptive manufacturing process of controlling life hours was happening. That the major brands in lighting were engineering light bulbs to burn out and they did it on purpose. Billions of light bulbs that are polluting our planet. We have covered the good, the bad and now it’s time for the ugly.

In 2001 I started selling light bulbs door to door to businesses in Chicago, during this time the electronic ballast came to market. Every fluorescent light bulb requires a ballast. The ballast is a battery and will one day run out of juice, needing to be replaced. Before the electronic ballast, a business used magnetic ballasts and T12 fluorescent light bulbs. A magnetic ballast would last 20 to 30 years. The major brands in lighting realized they were not selling enough ballasts, so they developed a linear T8, an energy saving fluorescent bulb to replace T12’s. The kicker…it required the new electronic ballast. The f#@king major brands in lighting engineered the electronic ballasts to burn light bulbs out faster…. The ballast made light bulbs burn out faster and then the ballast only lasted 5 to 7 years. If you have changed light bulbs for a business, you know exactly what I’m talking about. How many times have you said, “I thought I changed that bulb” or “I thought those bulbs would last longer”? Planned obsolescence is a major problem in lighting.

The General was an evil genius because we kept buying fluorescents… repeatedly for the past 60 years. They got away with it, made a fortune and hurt our planet. They stole from our ancestors; your parents and it continues today. Planned life hours with fragile designs forced businesses all over the country to buy more BadBulbs. We kept changing light bulbs. Major brands in lighting kept running to the bank. The Phoebus Cartel may be the longest running criminal enterprise in the country. Smoke and Mirrors built BadBulb bazillion-dollar lighting corporations and one of them makes a good toothbrush.

Google the Phoebus Cartel, all the above has been documented, this is real news.

Not all Bulbs are created Equal. Some are Good. Some are Bad. Some walk the Grey Line.

In the early 2000’s installing T8 fluorescent light bulbs with electronic ballasts was trendy and the right decision. Saving energy and producing a better-quality light was a Win-Win-LOSER!! The problem was that you spent more money replacing ballasts & those ballasts shortened the life of the bulbs.

If you still using fluorescents, there may be more burnouts in your property than at the corner of Haight and Ashbury in 1970's San Francisco. And my brother happens to live down the street from that corner. Are you tired of walking your business and seeing lights that are different colors and light bulbs that are burned out?

How to Order the Correct Fluorescent.

Light bulbs are complicated. I’ve been in lighting for over 20 years, and I still have questions. The first thing we should do is measure twice and order once. Let's guarantee you have the correct size, color, and amount of light. There is code written on the end of your old bulb, this code will tell me exactly what you are replcaing. Where are you using the bulb and what is needed from the light? Is the space designed as an office, industrial, or relaxing atmosphere? Does the light in the space blend with other lights, are the fluorescents lighting something special? If you have questions, we have lighting specialists that would love to help. Ask for a Lumen Master.

They will ask you a few questions to make sure we deliver the absolute best light bulb. If this is your first time ordering from GoodBulb you should have one of your old bulbs ready.
