I recently replaced a few of my incandescents with the compact
fluorescent type and they put out the same amount of light. At first
glance, the light appears to be more "yellow" than white, but I've
gotten used to it after a day or two. The good thing is that it isn't
the harsh "hard-white" light that's typically associated with
fluorescents. No noticeable flicker that some fluorescents can do too.
If the ratings on the bulb and EPA website are to be believed, it has
the same light output as a 60W bulb, but only requires 14W to do so.
So, it's a roughly a 60% savings per bulb.


Mine have a cold color. What brand are you using?
