I've installed them in
the bathroom exhaust fan/light fixtures at several
business because of the long life of the lights and
soon discovered that in the wintertime it's like a
40 watt incandescent until about 10 minutes later
when it's as bright or brighter than a 100 watt
standard bulb.

I like that "feature" in the bathroom, because the light doesn't blind me as
badly when I turn it on at night...
