Just kidding. Use whatever bulbs you like. I have some curly-Q bulbs in a few places where they burn long hours. Like the hallway. I don't like to sit around fluorescent light though. In some places, like the garage, I want a light that comes on immediately not a second later.

In the summer I prefer florescent because they burn cooler. I like to use a mix in my household, but florescent don’t do well outside when it’s really cold or in a bathroom where the steam heats them up everyday. I am lucky to get the florescent lights I use in my bathroom to last 6 months. I’ll have to look for some of these rough service lights instead.

If you don’t like the industrial look of the curly-q, they make them now that look like traditional light bulbs, but of course, they cost more because they have more glass in them.

When they ban all the incandescent, I wonder if I will still be able to get the yellow bug lights to use in my porch lights?
