Energy Saving Light-bulbs

Post by Softball »

Wow, this guy's speech is pretty good, it just might make you think twice about using these bulbs.

BTW, I have these light bulbs all over our house and have been cluelessly throwing them away for the last year or so. EEEK!!

There is a little murcery in the bulb ya I know and I never watched the video. A true energy efficient and safe buld is those led ones but those are getting better by the week. But yes I still use those bulbs, just don't toss them out, they need to be disposed of properly. also note there is a mandate to get rid of standard bulbs within something like 2010 or some od number like that in the US.

Well I will be stock piling the old bulbs until they can come up with something better. 50% of the bulbs I have are energy efficient I will be disposing of them ASAP!
