Hello,

Whilst browsing the excellent wiki faq, I found a "fear of the dark"
entry that reads:

"For small children, a 3w CFL bathroom light left on can make life
easier for them. This can be fitted either as a separate fitting, or a
bathroom globe type light taking 2 bulbs"

Are there such things are two-bulb, separately-switched, fittings or
do you have to modify them yourself?

I can't think where (Aldi/Lidl?), but I have seen low wattage CFL's
which plug directly into a 13amp socket - fairly similar to the smelly
units.
