Besides outdoor lighting where I needed hundreds of watts of incandesent
lighting, I used the first for indoor lighting in places that
traditionally have lights on timers. In a windowless bathroom an 8 watt CFL
provides enough light at so low a cost I just leave them on.


I have several motion sensor lights in my house so I don't have to
search for a light switch when I have my hands full, or I'm half asleep.
