GE Energy Smart^TM 50 watt R20 Replacement Lamp

Saves energy, 11 Watt bulbs replace standard 50 Watt R20 Bulbs

This package of four compact fluorescent R20 replacement bulbs saves $156 in energy (with electricity cost of $.10 per kilowatt hour).  You can expect these CFL bulbs to last about six years under standard residential use of about four hours a day.
