Those compact fluorescents are going to be the next big environmental
mess
on the scale of MtBE!

I hear that GE has an incandesent that is at least as efficient as a
CFL... Anyone have any details?

As efficient as CFLs are, they are relatively complicated devices. There
must be other solutions out there that doesn't involve such a complicated
device for such a simple task.


I have seen solar powered flood lights, but of course placement is sort of
critical. When you think about it, the standard incandescent is actually
very efficient compared to what was used previously. Much safer for the
environment then previous as well.
