Great bulb.  Poor packaging.
Verilux is a great full-spectrum bulb, wonderful for reading.  This item is a package of two bulbs.  They are packed like a book, which does not need extra padding for protection.  Consequently, one bulb was broken during shipment.  On the "easy return" label, there was no address.<br /><br />After years of purchases and several thousand dollars, this is the only complaint I have ever had about anything I've ordered from Amazon!  Not bad!<br /><br />However, buy this bulb locally!
