The CFL's are bull****. I have to run two lamps in most rooms to get any

You're doing something wrong. You can get CFLs with just as much
light as a 100 watt bulb only using a fraction of the power. They
are "instant on" also. We use 60 watt equivalents on the boat
intsead of 110 volt incadescents. They make a huge difference in
power draw when we are running on the inverter batteries.


I sit at a reading desk.. You can tell me all you want that 23 watt CFL
puts out as much light or lumens @.. etc.. but I know what I can see
with, and what I can't...


It's the color spectrum you have to look at when buying bulbs.
