I switched to the compacts in a few places about 5 years ago when imports became available at decent prices. I use them in places where I havent been able to train my wife or remaining at home son to

To put the energy saving in context - you use a 20W low energy bulb instead of 100W incandescent for 12 hours and save about 1kWh. The equivalent is about 1/9th of a litre of gasoline (1/30th US gall

When I get my foot into my 68 Impala SS-396 the savings is gone for the next 10 years. I just got tired of burnt out bulbs. Carl KM1H _______________________________________________ Amps mailing list

You pay a fair amount more up-front for the CFL bulbs and I have seen nowhere near the lifetime they are claiming. They blow around here all of the time and I would be surprised if I was getting a ye

Very interesting Carl. I would call the current stash of CFL third generation. I started back in the middle 80's trying out 1 lamp in my house. IT BURNED OUT QUICKLY. I returned it and they gave me a

As a follow up. Just had two more CFLs die tonight -- AFTER I wrote the above note. A fixture of three of them had been on much of the day while I worked under them. Turned them off for a half hour

Our line voltage is showing 117-118 on the UPS which is typical through the house. The shop which is on its own transformer runs 119-120. Even with 5 computers running my bill is pretty close to wha

I've also experienced short life-times with some CFLs I installed about 5 years ago. Probably no more than a few hundred hours of operation, far less than an incandescent bulb and certainly far less

Do they fade in the same way that 'regular' fluorescent tubes do? I had to dismantle a fixture to replace a dead tube at work, so I thought I'd do all four while I was there. I was staggered by the e

I'm sure that there are several versions made in several plants. Some good, some bad. The ones I have take about 30 seconds to get full brilliance and are somewhat close to the color of incadescents

I've not noticed it with the ones in the house, but out in the garage they have changed to a warmer color, or the new one is much whiter, I'm not sure which. When one goes out in the house maybe I'l

There must have been some improvements in CFL's recently. We have a light fixture in the den that has 4 bulbs. Our line voltage runs about 126V and I was replacing incandescent bulbs at the rate of 1
