Here is the link to the bulb
http://www.homedepot.com/p/Cree-60W-Equivalent-Soft-White-2700K-A19-Dimmable-LED-Light-Bulb-BA19-08027OMF-12DE26-2U100/204592770?keyword=1000003071
The SKU number is 1000003071.
The price of the 40W equivalent has been reduced from $9.97 to $6.97
Here is the link to that bulb.
The SKU number is 1000003073
In Connecticut however we only pay $3.97 for the 60W and $4.97 for the 40W due to a State of Connecticut subsidy program.

Before I posted, I went online and checked random stores in several States. They all came up at $6.97 for the 60w equiv. I checked stores in NY, MA, OH and Colorado. I just checked San Diego, CA and you are right. Only reduced $3 to $9.97. I just checked a second store in Colorado, this time in Glendale and it came up at $4.97! So the final price seems to depend on each individual store and any local subsidies.
When on the Home Depot site, it is possible to change “your store” to any other to get a look at the actual price at that store. You can even find out what isle they will be in!
Do these bulbs accept an input volt range up to 240V?

That’s a good question, I don’t know. I do know that internally, the individual LEDs are wired in series and run at about 225V.
MD/DC area 4.97. I will definitely be there at lunch, unless costco has them as well.
Anyone know of cheap airfares? No, how about cheap snorkel and flippers?

I checked mine and it only accepts 120 volts. I'm not sure if they make a 240 volt version for overseas.

I've got 20 installed inside, and two 40 watters used outdoors 12 hours every night for the past 8 or 9 months with no failures. I love these bulbs..

Here is the link to the 100W equivalent. My store has 111 in stock at $19.97 each. Some of the other stores I checked do not yet have them in stock.
The Cree 100W Equivalent Soft White (2700K) Dimmable LED Light Bulb gives your space a soft white glow, but uses at least 82% less energy than incandescent bulbs. Use it either indoors or outdoors in enclosed locations. It offers up to 25,000 hours...
If your store shows no stock, there is a link on the page that will check other nearby stores.

The price difference is because the utility company is subsidizing the promo and hasn’t gotten to that particular HD store yet I was told by HD CSR. My HD matched it.
I picked up 2 X 40W and 2 X 60W at lunch. They also had 65W flood for $11. I'll test these out first.
