At store, ask clerk for 1 with diffusion layer!

This is likely our fault but the packaging should have been more clear: This heat lamp as no dufusion layer on the surface; So, be sure not to actually even glance directly at the light, for you will get a nasty squiggly after image that lasts for a couple of hours...

Burned out quickly

Would Not Recommend

Bought this to keep my sump pump warm. Installed it into a proper lamp and connected to a temperature sensing plug. The bulb burned out within a few weeks. Now I have a frozen pump. Can't believe it. Definitely not 5,000 hours. More like 10.

Perfect for a dog heater

These bulbs last for quite a while. I use them as a heat lamp in my dog house during the winter.
