Govt banning lightbulbs.... wot about halogens?
I note that it's been announced today that incandescent lightbulbs are
to be phased out over the next couple of years: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/7016020.stm I'm not unduly perturbed (as most of my home is fitted with CFLs anyway) except that the kitchen and bathroom are fitted with low voltage halogen downlighters. Presumably these will go the same way as conventional lightbulbs, won't they? If so, is there an alternative 'bulb' I'll be able to use, or will I need to replace the fittings? (and therefore my ceilings :-( ) David |
