Is the actual size of this bulb 8 x 5.4 x 2.3 inches ? That seems very large compared to incandescent bulbs.

Not sure where these measurements came from, but the largest measurement (bottom of base to top of buib) is approximately 4". If anything it is smaller than an incandescent.

I don't know what the physical dimensions are of the Cree bulbs, but they look and fit my lamps just as the incandesents did, in other words, I didn't notice a difference.

I don't think so because that size does seem very large indeed. I believe it's just the whole package size and not the bulb itself.

I just pulled one of these out and measured. It's about 4.25" long. The glass bulb end is about 2.25" in diameter at the biggest place. And, of course, it has the standard "Edison" style screw-in base. It's actually quite small, and probably no larger than a 40W incandescent. The dimensions you mention must be for the bulb in its packaging!

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.

The best measurement I can get on it is about 4 1/2" to 4 5/8 inches long and slightly over 2" at it's widest point on the bulb. I compared it to a standard 60 watt incandescent and it is about 1/4 to 1/2 inch longer than the incandescent and just slightly narrower in it's bulb width. I should easily fit in anything a 60 watt bulb will but be just a little longer. Hope that helps.

No, the right ones are: overall length is 2.63", the white head is 1.88" long, width 1.20", thickness is .37", and the base is the standard bulb size. They fit nicely into the existing receptacles.

That is about correct. The size is close to the diameter of a half dollar coin. Fairly thin. I use them to replace conventional halogen bulb in a over range (stove) hood. Not to much space available to play around, but this bulb will do the trick. So far so good.

The bulbs I received are the normal socket size. Not the smaller candelabra size.

The bulb is app 3/4"x1/4". There are 2 - 5 bulb sets. The set size 5" x 1/"x1/2"

The size of the compartment that contains the bulb is about 4" x 10" and about 3" deep. If you are speaking of the box that it was shipped in was about 3' long and about 15" wide and 12" deep.

Click on the product details link for size information. This is a R20 or PAR20 bulb. It is roughly the same dimensions as a standard light bulb, but designed to go into can lights and casts all of its light straight down. Bulb is 2.5 inches wide. Suggesting it would be a better fit for a 3" can. Although these bulbs can overheat in such confined spaces, and a 4" can might be better in the long run.

No, these light bulbs are full light bulb sized, standard like a table lamp or light fixture.Side note... These do not like to be on a dimmer. I put them on a light with a dimmer switch and they burned the switch out.

I bought these because I needed long lasting bulbs with more light output that fit in a ceiling fan light. I think it was the same size as a candelabra incandescent light, but I can't get to it now to measure it. It was very pricey, but the greater light output and longevity was important.

Yes, it is standard-size. Bulb itself is maybe 1/2 inch longer than a 60-watt incandescent.

The bulb diameter is 3/8 inch. They work well as replacements for my outdoor lights.

I'm not really sure about that. The have a standard size threaded base but the bulb itself is large at about 5 inches wide and 8 inches long, so take that into account.

I would say yes but the size is definitely larger than the incandescent equivalent so take note if you have a size limitation.

Pretty hard for me to measure because it is intalled up high in my ceiling but it was a drop-in replacement for a GE EXN 50W 12 Volt bulb. I noted no size difference when I did the job. Hope this helps.

Thank you for the information, I always go by "if it doesn't say that it is, then it's not". How much height do they add to the bulb? Are you happy with the adaption?

never purchased a bulb that big, but if it has a regular screw base, I would expect it to work. For my purpose, illuminating a light box, they are fine.
