p.s. I saw CFL based floodlight the other day .. I'm keeping my eye
out for one locally as the 300W flood lamp that covered the back

They have been around for 5-10 years. They generally take three PL
type bulbs. Probably not as much light from one as a 300W linear
halogen light, but plenty of light for most tasks.

Whether one should leave such lights on for a long period is another
matter...
