Sump Light Bulb, Anyone know of a local distributor or a comparable brand

MikeyNYC · 02-07-2007, 09:09 PM

It seems that people have had good results with this TCP brand bulb, so why reinvent the wheel. I only want to purchase one, and shipping cost just as much as the bulb, so I thought that I would check to see if was available locally.

Anyone know of a local distributor for these bulbs. If one is not available, anyone have comparable alternative, kelvin rating, price, etc.

Thanks, as always. Mike

A little too much time and effort involved in coordinating, it's all about the in and out!

I tried 2 home depots here in queens and none of them have it.

lowes in brooklyn has one like it. All you are looking for is a 75w pc bulb in a flood bulb.

Color temp should be 5000k or higher. Look for 'daylight' bulbs.

is the same kinda bulb without the reflector around it. It's a fuge light, it doesn't have to be that specific.
