FORTUNA, Calif., Dec. 2, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- GeoBulb?-3 cool white light bulbs are one of the most economical, A19-size, LED light bulbs available today. It achieves 74 lumens per watt while only using 7 Watts of power. More efficient than most LED bulbs, the GeoBulb?-3 is a suitable replacement for a 50 Watt standard incandescent or compact florescent type bulb. The light (520 Lumens) is focused primarily from the top of the bulb so it can be used in many 60 Watt applications. The GeoBulb? uses 40% less energy than a typical 12 Watt LED bulb.

The high quality LEDs used in the GeoBulb? are rated to last 50,000 hours which is much better than most LED bulbs; high-temperature driver components are used to support this long lifespan. Unlike most LED bulbs, the GeoBulb? incorporates special ceramic capacitors in a unique proprietary design. The ceramic capacitors and custom high-temperature rated parts are more costly but they dramatically extend the life and reliability of the GeoBulb?. In addition, the LEDs run at a lower than rated temperature which further extends the bulb life. This follows the reliable theory that electronic devices last longer at lower running temperatures.

GeoBulb?s are backed with a five year guarantee and are designed to be left on for 24 hours a day for five years or longer. To maximize your investment, it is recommended that you replace bulbs that are left on for long periods of time or that are located in "unsafe to reach" areas.

The GeoBulb? line of LED solid state light bulbs are designed and developed by two individuals who have a mission to conserve energy and resources. For more information on the GeoBulb? line, go to GeoBulb.com. They are available as low as $49.95 in quantities of 10 or more. The GeoBulb?-3 is FCC compliant, UL listed, free of mercury and lead, and it generates almost 90% less heat than a typical incandescent bulb.
