re: #218 avanti

I’m confused too, I other than some appliance bulbs I haven’t had a incandescent in the house for over a year. What’s the issue ?’

You have to get the kind that don’t give off the hideous arctic glare. The other kind. They’re OK.

My only problem with the fluorescents is that I have some lampshades that are supposed to fit down over the bulb shape of an incandescent, and I haven’t quite figured out how to adapt them. But the fluoros last for ages, and work fine. I was told there’d be savings on the electric bill, haven’t seen that, but they definately pay for that little bit extra they cost in how long they last.
