Everyone now is installing small flourescent light bulbs in their house. It is now common knowledge that these spiral-shaped bulbs work better than our good ole trusty incandescent light bulb.
http://www.greenelectricalsupply.com/images/products/detail/SpiralCFLMaxlite.15.jpg There may be an even better way to save money and electricity. There is a new type of flourescent light bulb: * *http://www.betterbulb.com/a19_ccflbulb.html I have seen these at Home Depot or Lowes. I think these new CCFL's are currently less efficient than regular spiral flourescent light bulbs ( CFL ), shown in the 1st photo. But the new CCFL's are alleged to have other positive benefits that make them a better choice. And the future of these becoming more efficient looks good. The new CCFL's are much more expensive than the CFL's on the rack. But there are situations where you might want to consider a new LED light bulb. http://www.1000bulbs.com/images/LEDW-5WBULB-600x.jpg LED's supposedly last longer for example. Has anybody seen the one below yet? http://www.1000bulbs.com/images/TCP-LG16120VWH-600x.jpg David Locklear Ref: http://www.treehugger.com/files/2007/11/cold_cathode_compact_fluorescents.php http://www.1000bulbs.com/Litetronics-Microbrite-Standard-Shape-Cold-Cathode-Fluorescent/
