Wow Jim wicked funny you posted this. I am in the midst of a whole house conversion to fluorescent and just got the rest of the bulbs today. I thought and still think the same way as you posted. The newer small size bulbs are pisser for ceiling fixtures etc. I am waiting to see the National Grid bill next month with just half the house done. I think I'll save about $30 a month on electricity and maybe more. My house is a 3200 sq ft colonial with ALOT of lights in it. We have been wicked satisfied with the quality of the lights, especially for places like halls and closets etc that get used all the time. I did the downstairs bathroom which we wanted to see before we did the upstairs and the light is a little bit less, but two 100w fluro lights use 48 watts of electricity where 2 100 watt bulbs which were in there have a total of 200... 1/4 the electricity is worth the drop in light as it's more than acceptable. Lots of green in the lights though on the cheap one's so you have to watch out. Keep us posted how you do on the bills.
