Review: IT WORKS FOR ME !! - my unit is mounted directly on the air handler, and it has 2 tubes, one in the middle of the "A" evaporator coil and the other downstream of it where the drain pan is located. the unit is from ultraovation. com and they sell a full line of all types of a/c units. mine has a replaceable quarter sized battery and when u change the tubes, u take it out and put and put in a new battery, and when u do this, it resets the unit to "sound a Chirp" when the tubes need to be changed. it maybe a pain to listen to, but its time! otherwise, u will just on living and not know it. it cost me about 300 for the unit and 300 to have it installed yrs ago. I also have a Honeywell Air Cleaner, it works great, its 20x24, cost about 300 and 300 to install it, it needs to be cleaned by someone every 6 months, and we don't smoke or have any pets, and its loaded with what looks like mud when you rinse the 2 grids(cells) off with water. its amazing how much it gets! this unit makes a chirping sound too, it sounds like morse code, SOS !!! over and over until u do something about it. im going to contract it out for service, im getting too old to go up there, and the a/c man has a special pressure washer for cleaning the coil upstairs and outside without taking it all apart! GET A GOOD A/C MAN! have him make sure ur unit is fully charged, if it not, it can cost u a fortune!! insulation is cheap too!! have it blow in !! my bill went down 33% ! my average bill is $120 in tampa, florida and I keep the house at 70 degrees all year round !! Ah! its so nice to come home and open that door !! feel that !! Ahh!!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect upgrade for Honeywell RUVLAMP
*by J***. on August 1, 2016*

These bulbs fit directly in the Honeywell RUVLAMP 18w system. The longer 36w bulbs work without issue. These Phillips bulbs did not have any "keying" issues like I've read on other bulb reviews. Just make sure your vent has enough space for the extra few inches of bulb length without hitting the other side. Many owners of the Honeywell RUVLAMP 18w, may not be aware that there is a safety feature in them. Unsnapping the snap base, putting the new bulb in, will not turn on the light! You must physically unplug the cord from the wall, install the light bulb, then plug it back in. I've seen a few reviews where they think these bulbs won't light up. Just a safety feature. I've bought 2 bulbs, and both won't light up, unless you physically unplug the cord first.
