Interesting.  I knew for many products there is actually only one or a small number of manufacturers and everyone else just puts their label on it.  I would not have thought, though, that Sylvania and Westinghouse were rebadging the same bulbs as EcoSmart and Definity!  (Actually, I've never even heard of Definity...)

I had a 25W CFL go up as they describe - lots of smoke and a bright flame-like flash.  Was over so fast I was never sure if it really flamed or not.  So far the LEDs have been fine...  (Mine are all Phillips.)
