Do they still sell CFLs? Why would anyone buy them over an LED? I'll admit that we still have some in use at our house, but that's only because I'm too lazy to change them out before they die. But they take time to warm up to full output, whereas LEDs are 100% from the start.

Hopefully they'll continue the exemptions for specialty bulbs, otherwise someone is going to try to put an LED in their oven light socket, and find a nasty surprise the first time they use the oven...

I still have a few CFL’s in use as well. At this point, there in either sell them used fixtures or outdoor fixtures that are not used often and where instant full brightness isn’t a big concern. When they eventually die, so obviously get replaced with a LED bulb or I’ll just replace the fixture depending on location.
