I do know they use less energy, and they are as bright as the regular bulbs
How do you know? Do you have links to some reliable sources?

My electric bill! I wanted to see if it would go down after we switched to all twisties. But I’m not going to send that to you. If my answer is not good enough for you, then hard cheese!

We’ve had them for years in every socket and our light bill has actually increased.

I put 4 of the 150W daylight equivalents in a fixture over my art work area and wound up putting back the 150W daylight incandescents.

Not only were they not “daylight equivalent” they were markedly dimmer.

This is anecdotal but real life experience is often a better judge than “scientific tests”.
