FLOODLIGHT CHANGER Review

FLOODLIGHT CHANGER
Average Reviews:

bulb changer didn't work. It would not fit around the flood light.
Had to push really hard to just get one side of the product around the bulb. Didn't go any further in fear of breaking bulb. Would not recommend.
Bought a step ladder for the same price.....worked.

The changer would not suction onto the bulb at all, so I had to press up really hard against the bulb to get it to turn, then someone else caught the bulb as it fell towards the floor. With the new bulb, I was able to get it to suction onto the bulb but once I put the bulb into the socket, the suction would be lost, then it became very difficult to do anything other than let the bulb fall. Lowe's has a product that uses springs and 'fingers' that works great! Wish I would have known about it BEFORE I ordered this Bulb Changer.

I sent this overseas to my son-in-law. It works perfectly and I removed the risk of him placing a stool on top of a chair and my daughter holding his legs to change a bulb!
Thanks

This Unger floodlight bulb changer is well-made & a good concept, but has one big problem--it often doesn't hold the bulb, the bulb falls off while you're trying to balance it, & you end up with a cracked bulb. If you're working with a brand new bulb, it may work if the bulb surface is very clean. However, working with used bulbs (the bulb you're trying to replace), it's not likely to work. This suction type bulb changer often does not work if the bulb has dust or dirt on it. And after all, you're using this device to change bulbs that are in hard to reach places, which also makes it likely that you can't very well dust a high placed bulb (& if you live in a high humidity area, even a day's worth of dust quickly becomes caked onto the surface of the bulb). Outdoor bulbs become even dirtier, due to rain, dirt, & sap, & then they can't be grasped tightly by a suction type bulb changer. If you've had this problem, I recommend the Bayco light bulb changing kit, which is not the suction type; it's the "surround & clasp" type that is common to incandescent bulb changers (but is a wider diameter). So this does work in cases where the suction type of bulb changer doesn't work. I give this Unger bulb changer 2* because it may work in some cases where you have a very clean bulb that will allow the needed suction to take place.

Mr. Longarm 3030 Light Bulb Changer Kit Review

I bought this because after a remodeling project last summer our recessed bulbs had burned out. Since the ceilings were vaulted, some bulbs were abut 12 ft up (just an approximate guess). Anyways, we had R16 bulbs, which are only 2 inches wide. In addition they were housed in an eyeball type fixture. The suction cup on our other bulb changing kit was way too big. The red suction cup on this worked perfectly!

This changer works for changing bulbs in our garage, where we have no globes, just the bare bulb. No ladder needed. BUT I bought it to change the bulbs in our ceiling fan that hangs from a cathedral ceiling. Great reach, but the globes get in the way of the "grabber", where the prongs angle outward at the tip. It completely fails to do what it's supposed to. There are other models out there that seem to not have that problem, but I haven't bought one yet.

This works as advertised. I have used it to replace some flood lights in my high ceiling. My kit came with a pole that telescopes in three sections, but you could use a regular broom handle if your ceiling isn't too tall. To replace the bulb, you push the changer up over the bulb -- the arms spring around it -- and then twist it off. Put the new bulb into the changer, twist it in, and then wiggle the changer loose with a side to side motion.
But it gets better. I've found other uses for it -- this year we had a bumper crop of apricots on our backyard tree and we used the flood light attachment to pick fruit from the taller branches. The basket shape of the flood light changer was perfect for catching the fruit! We put the changer under the fruit and gave it slight tug -- if the fruit was ripe, it would fall gently into the changer's basket. We tried to keep the fruit on the tree as long as possible, and this was really great.
Tonight, I even adapted the kit to change the 9v battery in my smoke alarm! I strapped a magnet to the pole with velcro and used another pole I have to help push it into position and close the door.

Mr. Long Arm 0976 Smart Bulb Changer Kit and Pole Combo, Three-Six Feet Review

I have about 10 pot lights in my kitchen, and probably a dozen more throughout my house. I also have 10' ceilings. I'm of an age where climbing up a ladder to change bulbs isn't exactly my favorite activity. I decided to give Mr. Long Arm a try after reading the reviews here.
One burned out bulb -- 10 minutes later, the new bulb was in place, and there were no bulb casualties.
The trick, I think, is to make sure the vacuum seal isn't compromised. The suction cup "head" has about a 1/4" "give" with the pole. When the head is "out," it exposes a tiny hole that allows air to break the vacuum seal. In the "in" position, the seal is intact, and the bulb is held tightly. I found that if I "pulled" on the pole at anytime during the screw/unscrew operation, the vacuum seal would break, and the bulb would be loose. The trick, then, is to maintain some pressure on the bulb/socket by pushing slightly until you're ready to release the bulb, then pull back slightly to open the vacuum seal. It doesn't take much pressure -- just enough to keep the suction head from moving into the "out" position.
I tried this out by removing and reinstalling a couple of good bulbs, and that's how it seems to work. It might take a bit of practice to get the hang of it, but it will be well worth it.
I'm gradually switching all my bulbs over to compact flourescents, and this will be a big help in allowing me to swap them out safely. No more climbing up on ladders!

I bought this to change the flood lights that are over 13 ft high outside the house. Changing them has always been difficult, and one I have not been able to get to because its over a bed with hedge underneath making it impossible to use a conventional ladder.
I had seen the Bayco product at a store, and dismissed it as a gimmick thinking that anything that costs as little as what it does is probably useless for the larger flood lights.
I went ahead it purchased this last week despite my doubts, opened it, added the right attachment waiting to find that it will fail (sorry, been burned by too many cheap products that I have sent back to the retailer) and won't rotate the existing bulb in.
To my surprise, it generated sufficient torque and the grip provided the right control to remove the old bulb and change it and put a new one.
I ended up replacing all my flood lights with the new longer lasting energy saver type that lasts 8,000 hours. I will unlikely be replacing my flood lights again in the future (because of the long life) , so the device is probably now going to be used more for cleaning fans (it has an attachment for that).

My house has a high ceiling with par20 bulbs and outdoor lamps with par 30 long necks. I have had no major problems with this kit. It works as stated. Unfortunately I wish the kit came with a broken lightbulb adapter or CFL bulb adapter, but it's a minor quibble. The other adapters can be bought seperately, which I think I'll do later.
