More Light...Less Cost

30-watt compact flourescent bulbs are now available giving the equivalient of 120-incandescent-watts or 4 times the bang for your electric cost. Take for example our Jasmine Teardrop Table Lamp - it is rated for 2 x 60-watts, 120-watts total, but if you used two of the new 30-watt compact flourescents you would have double the brightness at 240-watts. Quite a difference. Linda and I have been using compact flourescent's for years now and are very satisfied with the results and the energy savings. We find the lowest prices and smallest-sized-bulbs at WalMart. At last count I have not changed an outdoor light bulb in 27-months and counting.
