We have a fairly decent stock of 60W, 100W and three-way incandescents, not that we're hoarders, it's just that they were being offered so cheap we couldn't afford to pass them up. We also have found that the CFL's don't give out the same intensity of light that the incandescent ones do. That, plus so far they haven't come out with a CFL replacement for a three-way bulb.I don't know if it's the same. but I think they are phasing them out -- store had no incandescent 100W. Pity, we could usually count on picking up US unsalable stuff cheap.We would switch to LED bulbs, but we would have to put a second mortgage on the house to do that.
What I really could use is a CFL that really takes 60W that I could put in some restricted fixtures. I'm switching to clear 60W because I think they give a bit more light.
