Is this bulb totally red like the picture shows it is? I have bought bulbs before that have showed all red but were not when we received them.

It is all red . We bought it for a therapeutic heat lamp but we think this is intended for food warming as it doesn't dim on heat lamp. I hope that helps

To my surprise. No.. No.. I thought it was all red because the bulb is in a reflector type shade where it fits so that red is all I see. I'm glad I examined bulb before replying because I was certain it was as depicted. NO... NO.. sides are actually white. .. not red... I purchased bulb (and it was the first time I bought one of these) to heat a small bathroom and it's great. However, my bulb has white on the sides. Legit question... my bulb is not as depicted.

I did buy a red version of this. The description must be correct. I recall when I bought it the picture may have showed something else. But, can't guarantee it and I'm not the seller.

mine is also that vintage - same bulbs as indicated - The less expensive bulbs don't seem to last - I've had a couple that didn't last 2 weeks - fortunately the let place I bought them refunded my complete order when I complained- vey good! I'm trying the new LED bulbs to see if their lifetime is better. I bought the suction cup to unscrew the bulb a long time back - Almost any hardware store should have something similar - a cup holder with suction cup sounds about the right size. Caution - for a blown bulb, sometimes the suction cup simply pulls the glass from the front of the bulb - need a part of needle node pliers to get the bulb out if this happens.

No, the bulb is a heat lamp unless you replace it with a normal bulb. They do make a clear heat lamp that is really bright instead of the red one.

Hi, I checked this again with a flashlight and it does have a red color when you shine a light on it, but it is hard to see. Sorry to mislead you.

Hello, I ordered this bulb earlier this year and never did get a response back as to if I could exchange the bulb for really the correct one. So I gave up after a while. I have gone to home depot and replaced the bulb now. So not sure why I am getting this 6 months after the fact. Thank you!

Unfortunately they only sent me one bulb which does not work. I tried to fix this but no record exist that I can see on my acct. so I will need to call amazon

mine was as pictured. the headlight had only a single red led light, so it's not an ideal headlight.

Yes, the light is red. Matches perfectly with the under HVAC controls light

I received the correct lamp when I ordered mine. However, I cannot remember whether the picture was representative of the product or not at the time of my purchase. Good luck.

Yes the part was correct and there was no problem with packaging. It was installed correctly, however there is a thick Red banner across the top of the television. I've tried reinstalling the part but the banner remains. I have decided to keep the part because the television won't work without it. My original bulb has blown. I will keep the part, but other supply might be of same quality.

Thank you very much for your reply - I was just searching about whether or the it came with bulbs and totally missed them in the false bottom of the box!!!

If I recall correctly, instruction does indicate bulb is LED, but its been awhile since my install. The switch does not generate any heat and is actually cool to the touch, however, of the dozen, or so installed, several have failed, so no more red glow, but flickering. They have since been replaced and currently all are doing fine.

I still use the same bulb and usually have no problem with them. Having one last for 3 months was unusual but that could happen, I was more disappointed about the second bulb not working at all. If you purchase them you should test both bulbs once received.

Mine has red too, they work the same just have a different color indicator light.

NO IT IS NOT- I received only ONE bulb, after expecting 10 from all the other answers.

My original bulb says FDL-18LE 18W, as does the new one I ordered from Amazon. Does your bulb look exactly like the one pictured? A Google search does not show a LOA bulb with "FDU", so I am not sure if your bulb is the same.
