It also starts instantly compared to the screw in ones, so it must have a quick start capacitor or something. Best LED I've seen yet. In several states they are $25, still $40 here in WA, so I'm holding out past my first test one for a bit.
We'll be past CFLs in no time I hope.

I liked the color of the Phillips bulb, but the delay when it was switched on and the cost sucked. I bought one of the Cree/ecosmart kits that you mention. You're right, they come on instantly, they are cheaper (25%), and they look better (bezels). The color is a bit warmer but is still good. Thanks for the tip!
