They're easily excited bundles of energy, and the smaller they are, the more excited they get.Sounds like a great girlfriend.

On a more rational note - about 50% of the energy useage in commercial buildings is for lighting.
The Denver Airport has a translucent roof covering to allow natural light into the working space and reduce energy costs.
I've not personally been to the Denver airport, but folks who have rave about the 'ambiance' provided by the natural light.

(Rubbing my head) I didn't know you could throw a floodlight bulb that far.

^^^^^^^^^^^^The expense is worth it if I can figure out what I need so thanks for one more link to explore!^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Well....
These lights are garbage if you intend on using them in traditional lamps. Being as directional as they are they'll only create a spot on the roof while the rest of the room is rather dim. They are great if you have ceiling fans with light fixtures attached to them.............

4 e27-w36-g bulbs is what I have per room, in the fans. They're accurately labeled at about 25-30 watt. 4 of these is 100-120 watt of light per room. It's plenty.
I bought just a few for testing before I filled the house.

To: bert
There is a discrepancy between your post and their website......
Oh, yes, I see that now. Arghhhhh......sorry.
I took a muscle relaxant and should have gone right to bed like they tell me but thought I'd check FR before napping it off.
Let this be a lesson to me: do not post when taking muscle relaxants. It will not make sense!
Wonder what other threads I opined on......

Thanks for the new link, too!
