Have replace most of the lights bulbs in the house with them. My electric bill has gone way down. As for the dinners, they have come out with the CF bulbs you can use dinners on, just make sure the package states such.

I put one in my basement, one in my laundry room, one in my bathroom, and one in my dining room - they all burnt out within one year and I do not have voltage spikes in my area. So, for the price you for these bulbs versus standard bulbs, I don't see anything "green" about them.
