    This is such a genius idea! Especially for us who have storms. The light is much brighter than I expected. Buying more for sure. It's a must have when power goes out or if your camping/glamping.

    I live this light bulb. This is the second one I bought (the first one was over two years ago, it still works). I bought this second one due to a 24 hour power outage after a big storm. We were the only condo in our unit with lights in the living room. These bulbs work great.

    These bulbs are great for lights that you leave on day and night. When the light is turned off with the switch these come on. The technology exists to prevent that, but these bulbs don't have it.

    AMAZING PRODUCT! When the power went off due to a terrible thunderstorm I had a bulb in each room of the house and they lasted about 4 hours and they started going dead. At least I had piece of mind when the lights went out!

    Amazing. Lasted MUCH longer in recent power outage than it even states. I use in my regular lamps. My power went out while the lamp was on and it remained on. First night I left it on for four hours (to try and conserve). Next night it lasted for over 12 hours, dimming the last little bit. Planning to replace my fixture bulbs with this bulb. Game changer and pleasant, warm lighting!

    New Battery Backup Lights (New to Me)

    - 2 years ago
    originally posted on gelighting
    I bought a 3 box of the flood light 65watt and I bought and a box of 5 traditional 60watt. So, I installed them and the light is phenomenal, great light. When I turn the wall switch to off the bulbs stay on? I am not sure what I am not doing correctly with these new battery back up bulbs. I am missing something? When I turn off the wall light switch shouldn't the light go off rather than staying on? Does anyone else have this issue with wall light switch?

    Nice to have a lightbulb with a backup battery especially if you live in a state that has hurricanes, I was the only one who had light on our street during our recent hurricane in Florida. 1000% recommend if you live in a area that loses power from natural disasters or power outages.

    You wouldn’t know this was a battery backup lightbulb unless someone told you! We haven’t had a power outage yet, but I read other reviews that said simply unplugging the lamp does NOT test the auto-on function (it’s smarter than that). I only gave 4 stars because I won’t really know if it works until power goes out snd this thing is $$$$$.

    These are a life save during power outages. Gives great amount of soft light. They are much cheaper in my area during off peak weather season. I have one for most rooms in my house and the kids are no longer afraid when the power goes out during a storm.

    Comes on when the power goes out. Bulbs last about 5 hours on the battery. Light is a nice soft/almost warm white so not a horrendous cold blue light or anything. Nice that you can take out and use as a flashlight also. They dim a little when on battery but that was expected. Overall really good product for the price and will probably buy more.

    Bulb flickers when on which is annoying, thought maybe it needs to work with non-dimming lamps so move to another floor lamp but as soon as I twist bulb in it lights up even though lamp is off and the battery switch is off, tried on another overhead hanging lamp same behavior. Great idea but execution is flaky and flickering behavior very annoying

    Just turn on the light to charge the battery. It’s that simple! When the power goes out you can either turn on the lamp (cord must be plugged into the outlet for it to work), or remove the lightbulb and flip the switch to use it as a flashlight. I have 3 of these so far- 1 for my bedroom and 1 for each of my kids’ rooms- but I will definitely be getting more for the rest of my house!

    This was the 1st time i was trying out one of the new GE Bulbs and I loved it. What a great idea! having a normal light bulb and at the same time a flashlight its great. Now with any emergency that comes up the 1st thing i am doing is picking up the #GEBatteryBackupBulb #sponsored [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]
