I have to pay 15p for each low energy lamp I purchace at the
wholesalers.
It
is called the WEEE charge. Soon they may be charging 5p for a carrier
bag
as
well.

There is electronics in CFLs.
If you buy g23 (IIRC) based tubes there is no electronics and should be no
WEEE charge.
They are also better if you have space for a ballast and the tube.


Very interesting.

I am buying one of those on Monday. It let you know I am charged the WEEE.
