one of the packages I opened had one of the bulbs already busted in it, glass powder came out of it all over the kitchen floor.
They can be dangerous right out of the packaging.
For decades the enviro whackos have told us how dangerous mercury is.
Then, mercury is a product used in the manufacturing of the so called green bulbs.
I got an update from my wife re new hazardous to your health bulbs not working out of the box.
She bought a GE pack of 3 - 13 Watt Bulbs #97689, and one out of the three failed to work.
These GE bulbs are made in China. Maybe China has found a way to get rid of its toxic materials.
They put mercury and God knows what else into their spiral bulbs.
We are putting the dead spirals and DOA spirals into a double Ziplock bag. I will be dropping them off this week to get them out of our laundry room
