Normal bulbs are 4" long. This seems to say Cree are 5". Am I reading this right? 5" bulbs won't fit some fixtures.

The only issue I have had is in the lamps where the bulb, because of its length, will just fit or will just not fit in the lamp shade itself. These bulbs fit in ever other location where regular household bulbs fit.

I don't know about your fixtures, since I don't know if they're normal, but this has the same threading and size as a standard 60W incandescent light bulb. For reference, the "normal" 60W incandescent, in the U.S., uses an E26 base, which this uses. So if you're looking at any CFL or LED bulb, if you can find the base specified as E26, then that gives you the "normal" size. There's more here (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edison_screw) and here (http://www.harringtonlights.com/Reference/identifying_light_bulbs.htm).

The ones I have ordered are 4.75" wide by 5" tall from the top of the bulb to the base.

They are 48 inch bulbs. I purchased them for my 4 foot shop lights I installed in my garage. They work fine and starts instantly even in extremely cold weather.r

Yes just don't get the long cfl bulbs, unless you are hanging the fixture. Stick to the short spiral style

The dimensions of the bulb are similar to a long neck incandescent. In fact, I had to adjust my fixture to about the limit in terms of length. I do like this bulb. The light color, focus and intensity are excellent. I am thinking of getting more.

Im not up to speed on bulb sizes, but this one is NOT the old style christmas light size. I think 'C' is a sizing thing. 'C9, C7'...etc. the base on these are about the same diameter as my pinky finger.Make sense??-

2 standard size bulbs. Not sure how high bulbs can be rated....I'm using 2-60W equivalent CFL bulbs (curly fluorescent type)

I'm not sure how you are getting this measurement but it's larger than that. The flood light bulbs (P-38) are wider than 5" and wouldn't fit into a 4" wide fixture. But these fixtures are "standard" size for P-38 stage lighting fixtures, I've been using this types for many yours and from different manufacturers. Also, the price and quality were very good from this provider. Will order again!

The Cree 18-Watt (100 Watt equivalent) bulbs will NOT work in ANY fully-enclosed fixture. They will overheat & burn out very quickly. They generate more heat than they can withstand when enclosed. I have spoken with Cree, & they said that their 75-Watt equivalent bulb (and below) CAN be used in fully-enclosed fixtures, but the 100-Watt cannot.

Hi - I ordered this a few weeks ago to plug into a brand new outdoor light fixture I purchased at Lowes, so I could insert a regular incandescent 25 watt lightbulb, and that size sounds about right. I can go home and measure it tonight and get back with you. Karen

Approximately 4 1/2 inches tall (definitely taller than your normal PAR30 but work fine for me) and about 3 and 5/8 across at the bulb end. I could not find LED bulbs that were as sort as the normal PAR30s. I think this may be due to heat reasons in recessed sockets.

Yes, it is the length of the bulb. Many other bulbs were too long for my recessed lights. These were a perfect fit.

This is a PAR30L bulb in size. The 30 stands for 30/8 of an inch in width or 3 3/4" wide and an L bulb is 4.625" in length from bottom of socket to the top of the glass cover. This bulb will not be flush with a 5.5 inch deep fixture but will be recessed in your light fixture.For the record PAR 30S are only 3.625" in length or an inch shorter, but still 30/8" of an inch wide.

These bulbs are approximately the same size as traditional 60w bulbs. If your current bulbs are the smaller 40w incandescents ... there might be a size issue. My advice would be to purchase the Crees, and even if they didn't fit ... you can always find other 60w bulbs in need of an energy-efficient upgrade!

I don't have the Cree bulbs but a similar product. As long as any manufacturer LED bulb you install is dimmable, it should work.

That sounds more like the 60W Cree floods I bought at the same time. Unfortunately they are in the top of a top & bottom fixture 12ft up so I can't easily get to them. There's no way they were 5" wide or 8" long.
