yeh thanks for that i think everyone should at least have one or two in the main lights they use at least they estimate if everyone used one of these in at least one of their main lights then they would save enough electricity to run a major town for 2 days :p Thanks for the post hope you have a nice day

Good for you! I have them in most rooms and although I've never really noticed a difference in my bills as I got them over a long time I like to think they are more economical and better for the environment. The older ones seem to get brighter as they warm up.

yeh its nice to know that there are other energy consience people in the world :) i was doing a spot of work at a house that was owned by a rather rich person and even during the day the lights in their house were ALL on and i worked there for a couple of weeks and it was the same everyday. I guess they just werent worried about their bill or the enviroment either i suppose :) Thanks for the post hope you have a nice day
