*Bravo, Pop!* You just replied to a 13 year old post.* While awaiting your
brilliant and illuminating reply, all the bulbs in the fixture died a
natural,
but not untimely death, and were replaced with 6 LED bulbs.* They will last
until the end of time but the OP now must wear sun glasses whenever he
takes a
crap.* OTOH, he has a marvelous tan!


so then, can you mix LED CF and Incans in the same fixture? Will they
last 13 years like the last ones?


Not a good idea. The incans will heat the LED and CF. The
electronics in them don't like heat. ...but they won't shatter. ;-)
