But Loews and Home Depot or anyone else would be foolish
to try to sell 100 watt light bulbs after January 1st.


Why? The demand would still be there.

The reason I think the big guys will quit selling them is because of their lawyers.

I’ve got two hundred plus of them on hand now, should I buy more?

Loews still had them on the shelf yesterday.
The girl at the checkout had no clue of the impending ban.

Because they will get fined later if they do.

The ban is for manufacturing and importing, not the sales of existing supplies.

The US manufacturing has ended. I do not know if it will now re-tool and resume.
