Also cfl bulbs in my experienc do not last nearly as long as the manufacturers claim even under normal working conditions, this should be the focus for debate, the quality of the product and the price not just sweeping statements about energy saving light bulbs, i have a house full of these bulbs but i think we are being conned by the manufacturers.cflblueshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11304705628233310868noreply@blogger.com
