I have used CREE bulbs for a long time and been a bit fan but this model failed after 8 months and of course their warranty isn't worth the paper it is written on due to them requiring the receipt and proof of purchase. Who on earth keeps barcodes for bulb! I give it two stars simply because when it works it gave a nice l light and worked well in our fixture but the lifetime is way to short. I'm going to take a try with the Philips equivalent and see how we go despite the slight price premium over CREE.
