What this bulb is and who it suits

The GE 97495 is a 60 watt A19 incandescent bulb with a medium base that emits yellow light rated at 520 lumens. It is designed for outdoor areas such as patios, decks and backyards where the yellow spectrum reduces insect attraction while still providing enough illumination for people to see.

Who should use it and who should not

This bulb suits homeowners who want a dimmable 130 volt bug light for standard sockets in covered outdoor fixtures. It is not for buyers who need a long-life or energy-efficient source, as the rated life is 2000 hours and the product carries no Energy Star rating.

Capacity and headroom

At 60 watts and 520 lumens the lamp comfortably lights a typical gathering space on a deck or patio. It runs out of headroom for larger yards or security lighting where higher output or broader beam spread would be required.

Questions about this item

What socket or fixture do I need already to use this 60 W A19 bug light?

It requires a standard medium-base socket rated for 120 V household current.

Will this yellow 60 W incandescent bulb work in my older porch fixture that originally took a clear 60 W bulb?

Yes — it matches the same A19 shape, medium base, 60 W draw and 120 V rating, so it fits and runs on the same circuit.

How can I confirm the 97495 is performing as a bug light once installed?

The yellow finish should emit a warm 520 lm glow that does not attract insects, and the bulb should last about 2000 hours at 130 V.
