But now you can buy at Home Depot or Lowes, 38 watt bulbs to replace the 40 watt and 98 watt light bulbs instead of 100 watts. All designed to skirt the new LAW, which is Very Specific with regards to wattage. Yes I have already bought some and they work as advertised.

Thanks, was unaware of that. We bought quite a few of the 60W & 100W sometime back but that’s good to know.

Thanks for the information. I just bought some Softwhite 100W bulbs for my small home office because 60 & 75 W don’t light it up enough to read.

I have one of those mercury-filled curlycue bulbs which didn’t provide enough light to brighten up a flea’s butt. Now it sits useless (burned out) on a shelf until I can find a place where I can recycle it.

I work in environmental affairs and can testify that some of the EPA, but esp. its leadership, is out of their marxist minds. Their destructive programs and plans are deliberate efforts to cripple, if not destroy, America’s electrical systems now in existence and to inflict Obama supporter, “green” failure technology on us.

There is nothing wrong with good, technology-based environmental policies but they are never going to come from Obama and his marxist minions and environmental wackos.

It is the time to reclaim more of Congress, but in the meantime, take the fight to the Left through the House of Representatives (the Senate is useless).

And save those 100 Watt bulbs, for wattever is coming down the pike.
The only hope is to defund a significant part of the EPA and reduce their financial ability to destroy America.

Thanks for waiting until after I bought that tractor-trailer load of 100 watt bulbs to tell me this.
