(6 pcs) F8T5/WW 8W T5 12" Warm White 3000K Fluorescent Light Bulb 12,000HR

the price on these is very good. and they're hard to find locally. they arrived on time, packaged well and entirely intact. I ordered the F13T5/WW bulbs from the same supplier at the same time and both sets arrived in one box as they should. I deliberately ordered both bulb types from the same manufacturer because they are used side-by-side and I didn't want to risk a different manufacturer's bulbs having a slightly different color tint even if rated for the same 3k color temperature.the color of the bulb is fairly accurate for a 3000k color temperature model. I actually like the color of the naked bulb. Unfortunately when I put the plastic cover back on the fixture it turns the light a bit yellow. A cooler bulb might offset that, but it's hard to dial in the exact color you want with non-professional bulb offerings. I'm considering simply removing the plastic covers from my fixtures (they're used under kitchen cabinets and not visible anyway) because the light is almost exactly the color I want when the covers are off.

They work, they arrived promptly, but they are a poor match for the Philips Master TL Mini Super 8W/830. The color cast is yellow to green, and the light seems dim as a result. My soft cream-to-peach tile backsplash looks flesh-toned under these tubes. I was going to return them, but read on.Edit: I searched high and low and still cannot find the same Philips T5 undercounter lights that were originally installed, maybe because of legislative changes. I bought Sylvania tubes with the same specs, and they look exactly like these. The Sylvanias are also made in China. So the problem is that the replacements, while probably more green, are different and **inferior** in light quality.When hard-wired LED undercounter lights come down a bit in price, I'll ditch these muddy-colored fluorescents in a nano-second.

I bought 6 packs of both the F8T5s and the F13T5s for under cabinet use in my kitchen. They came well packaged. I had read a few reviews where people were complaining about the color being way off. I suspect they may not understand what is meant by warm white, cool white etc. I tested out all the bulbs. The color between the six F8T5s was consistent and is very close to the Phillips bulbs I have. The color between the six F13T5s was also consistent. However, there was a noticeable difference in color between the F8T5s and the F13T5s with the F13T5s being a little greener. With the diffuser in place the color difference is less noticeable than when looking at the bare bulbs. Some may find this a problem but for the cost compared to Phillips bulbs and the shadows in my kitchen I can over look the difference.Can't speak to the longevity at this point but will update this review if I have to replace a bulb in the next year or so.

First of all, I'd like to say that these bulbs do put out warm light. I know this because my previous bulbs did not which made their light clash with all of my other lights.My fluorescent bulbs recently went out in my travel trailer and I needed a replacement. From the research I had done, Sylvania bulbs are supposed to be the best. I searched Amazon for a Sylvania bulb and this item was at the top of the list. After looking, this seemed to be the best deal since you get 6 bulbs. I did not realize I didn't purchase Sylvania bulbs until the order came in.Just remember these are NOT Sylvania bulbs. They work fine right now and were the right color I wanted so I can't complain. The only reason I gave them 4 stars and not 5 is that I haven't used them long. If in 6 months to 1 year all is well, I'll be changing my review to 5 stars.

Worst bulbs ever. 3 were broken (insides broken) and three flickered and make noise. Also, color was not consistent with each bulb.

Received 6 tubes today. Of the 6 received, 3 work properly, 3 flicker and are unusable. Disappointed. Recommend shopping elsewhere.

These work great! These are the harder to find Warm White bulbs. Cool White is pretty much the only option in retail stores any more and the light is too harsh for under cabinet lighting (in my humble opinion). These Warm White are softer and easier on eyes yet plenty bright!

Nice sturdy packaging, very nice bright lights
