The newer generation are smaller. They utilize a dual-spiral that is
actually smaller than a standard 40W bulb.
I haven't found anything they won't work in. They're not going to replace
those small globe bulbs, but those have a smaller socket.
I was talking more like outside lights that you might put a protective
globe over the bulb but if they're smaller than a standard 40w bulb then it
should work. I wonder how many old foggies have tried the 1st generation &
have said never again? I always had to wear tinted glasses as those warm
lights gave me headaches which was just another reason I liked working in
the computer rooms as they had color corrected bulbs & better diffusers.
Now a days computers are everywhere so I doubt many companies take any
extra ergonomic precautions.
