Not withstanding all the toxic crap that these so-called eco-friendly bulbs contain, they do not perform as advertised. We are told that these lights last 8-10X longer than an incandescent bulb...it is barely 2X as long in my experience.

Several years ago I bought about 40 4-packs of incandescents, various wattages, at a buck a pack, in preparation for the ban. Still working wit them.
