Yeah, I'm sure they're much better for the environment and that but they have a number of problems, not least of which is that they are claimed to affect some people's health. Also they contain mercury. On a personal note we have a couple of lights that have dimmer switches, and energy-saving bulbs don't work with them. Also the light they produce isn't as "nice" as a standard bulb. Share Share this post on Digg Del.icio.us Technorati Twitter
