Compact Fluorescent Bulbs
Summary: Compact fluorescent light bulbs are made by the best known light bulb companies. Fluorescent light bulbs are energy efficient and can save you good money! Compact fluorescent bulbs can best be found in a specialty lighting store.
The CFL Bulb Players
Just about every bulb manufacturer that makes regular incandescent or regular tube type fluorescent bulbs makes the trendy and energy efficient compact fluorescent bulbs. Names like General Electric, Panasonic, Sylvania, Westinghouse and Phillips should ring a bell with you.
The photo is just a small sampling of different bulbs that will save you lots of money. If you have lots of recessed fixtures in your house, the one bulb in the two o'clock position in the photo above will be of interest you. I have two of these now and am getting ready to order 30 more. They really work well and they are saving me huge money.
Do you want to find all of these CFL bulbs and more? Forget about going to a home center, a hardware store or a grocery store. The BEST place to find light bulbs is at a specialty store that sells light fixtures. I go to a place in Cincinnati called Becker's. They sell light fixtures and have every bulb both CFL and incandescent you could ever imagine. I'll bet you have a similar store or two in your city or town.

I'm interested in finding a light switch that will use a remote control to
dim and turn on or off hard wired light fixtures. I found one that says
not used with fluorescent lights (Thorlo) does that include CFL bulbs? Any
suggestions about such switches and controls would be greatly appreciated.
Thanx
