Default (OT) : The Best 2700 Kelvin Compact florescent bulbs


Finally found one ; 2700 Kelvin ( warm color)

15 Watt == 950 lumens, ~= to a 60 watt incandescent bulb

Tested it with a Short Wave Radio, 300 miles from WBCQ

interference only detectable within 3 feet or closer to the bulb
( Neat, eh ?)

- also found one ( 2700 Kelvin, nice warm color ) made by Longstar

AND THEY LAST FOR SEVEN YEARS ! ! !

Not Only A Lot Easier - But at least Ten Times More Cost Effective

& No turning on the light & watching it blow out

Generally a better way to light your house..
