I've been using them for 20 years. Buy quality brands and you'll see no problems. Sure, they age a bit after many thousands of hours. At 39p I can afford to replace them then.

How long have YOU been using them ?

Ignorance is NOT knowledge.

Red herrings are NOT valid points.

You pathetic bloody fool.

Oh please, cite when and where? Besides outhouses and single family dwellings befallen by severe winter storms that interrupt power for days?

I know one person who so much as had his bathroom cool to about +7 degrees C during an almost-weeklong power outage in January 1994 after the "Great Ice Storm" of January 1994. That was Philadelphia's first day on record for weather-related official lack of mail delivery service - for only one day!

Non-problem to me - I do that often and have done that a lot and been there a lot!

You claim that's a problem where I find that a non-problem?

I know bleeping well what you were referring to.

What I have seen is great absence of the trouble that you claim and notably cite incomplete data for on that style of CFL, even of Philips brand!

You cited one cite of data that did not include percentage of full light output at start and did not state what percentage of full light output was achieved at 2 minutes - that could have vbeen 99%.

I do use Philips spirals and find complete lack of failure to have been most-of-the-way warmed up within a minute.

I know they really exist, but I do not know from your link how dim they start nor what percentage of full output (such as 99%) that they achieve in 2 minutes.

What makes you think that I can't tap off a 240V line for my living room air conditioner? I have already done that to light lamps!

What makes you think that I lack a 120/240V transformer of 2-KVA rating? I have one of those!

While most are far from as slow as you said!

Autistic mental defectives never will.

Looks like they call them 'twister' in USA.

Given that twister is American for torndo I don't find that particularly surprising.
