Dim is not the word for CFL at near freezing ... glimmer is closer.
And they take even longer to warm up. If it's simply going to be on

if it's just switched on to call the cat or move the bin, remember to
switch the CFL on 5 mins before you go out...

The cat and bin usage is exactly what I will be using it for.
