No, incandescents only. Why?


Some Intermatic timers specifically say they can't be used with CF bulbs.
Even so, I bought one which was supposed to be compatible, but 3 of them
fried over a period of 6 months. Intermatic said "not ready until...", and
the "until" kept moving from September to December to ......oblivion. Some
of their units also say they must run with a minimum of a 40 watt standard
bulb, or the world will end.
