That's one of the few viable energy-saving lamps that have a really long life. I bought two of these parts in the late summer of 2004 for two floor lamps. While all the other energy-saving lamps were partially gave up the ghost in the more commonly used lamps after a short time and replaced by LED bulbs, work the two Osram Dulux after 10 years still without any problems. This purchase was worth it.
