FWIW - I have CFLs throughout the house and also at the cottage. No issues with RFI, but as noted cold start in the winter (before the wood stove heats the cottage up) will give you slow firing and g

About half of the 20 we have installed are either in ceiling fixtures of fully enclosed in glass globes. Nary a problem with heat of premature failure after the early ones. The one here in the den is

Some of our CFLs have not lasted very long, and they do take a little while to achieve full brightness. Yesterday at Sam's Club I picked up a two-pack of 45-watt-equivalent LED bulbs with a power con

Alan, LEDs clearly are the way to go, longer life than CFLs, less heat, no start-up latency. I cannot vouch for the quality, but there are quite a number of LED light bulbs available for sale on eBay

Alan-- I just posted my note about the RFI warning on the Sam's Clubs LEDs before seeing your note. I wonder what the differences are in these lights since the ones I saw were 40 watt rather than 45

FWIW, I had a fairly new Sylvania "75 watt" CFL fail Wednesday; when turned on, it glowed faintly, then sizzled, and a visible arc leapt between the tube and the lamp base shell. Either that was a ra

Y'all are not having fun with CFLs. I converted everything at N5UWY/9 (save for stuff like the fridge and under the microwave/range hood) about 8 years ago, when CFLs were *really* expensive. Overall
