Question by wilhem: 100wt energy saving bulb in a socket rated for a 60wt standard bulb? My standard ceiling light sockets suggest that I use standard 60 watt bulbs.

Review by Arthur S. Wilson for 1.3 Watt 110V LED Light Bulb (Clear)
Rating:
This is great for a SMALL lamp for a small area light the bed side, but don’t expect to light up a room for you! Don’t try to do any reading with this light either. Great for entering a room and you don’t want to trip over anything. Great for saving energy, but not so great for reading with. I give it 3 stars because of the energy savings and the fact that it’s still useful to me to prevent myself from tripping over any of my sleeping dogs…

Review by Alan M. Dehate for 1.3 Watt 110V LED Light Bulb (Clear)
Rating:
Not really what I expected. This bulb does not compare to an incandescent, halogen, or fluorescent light bulb. I would recommend it as an extra bright night light – that’s the only use I could come up with after trying it out. It’s not bright enough to be used for ambient light.

Rating:
These lights throw a nice light and I heartily recommend LEDs for almost every lighting need. These units, however, are inexpensive for a reason-they are cheap! I got 3 units from Geeks and all three failed in under 20 hours. I don’t hold the quality of the product against Geeks-it is for Customer Service failings that I will not do business with Geeks again.

This bulb lasted about two hundred hours and simply died. Not worth the time and trouble to send back.

I ordered 2 of these LEDs and put them in my fishtank to cut down on heat for the fish and power draw. Light is extremely blue and not too powerful, because of that I can’t think of any other use besides an aquarium.

Review by Stephen for Hopkins Plug-In Simple 47345 7 RV Blade To 4 Flat Adapter With LED Tester Lights
Rating:
If you are going to pull a Uhaul trailer and have a stock 7 pin blade jack you will need to get an adapter. This unit has a very solid feel and is easy to plug in. When you need to remove it the top and bottomtabs give you a sutiable area to grab and unplug the unit.
The best feature is the confirmation of power LED lights. The Uhaul I went to had several trailers with bad lights. I could see that I had a good connection and that the trailer lights were bad. This was confirmed when I finally found a working trailer.
You could buy an adapter from Uhaul when you rent the trailer. It will cost you $20 and does not have the confirmation lights.

So you say you need a 7 RV Blade To 4 Flat Adapter well step right up and order this one and don’t look back.
I picked up a new trailer but as luck would have it the trailer was 4 wire so took a chance and ordered this one, worked like a charm and the LED test lights are a nice bonus.
