OT: The Apeggist Goes Green

As in screw-in fluorescent bulbs. All the nattering about quality of light kept me back. But when a bulb on a light that's on all the blew, I took the plunge. That was a 75 watt. The replacement puts out 100 watts of light, with a 23 watt current draw.

Better. It lasts for 11,000 hours versus 1200.

Best. The light quality is great.Better than an incandescent.

What's not to like? It saves energy, it's green, it's great light, it's cheaper to run.

Next move. A 500 watt output from a 100 watt draw. For the light by the piano. Know how hard it is to get that much light, and a fixture that can handle it? Just right for aging eyes.

Try it. You'll like it!
