"William Sommerwanker is Wrong Again"

** A CLF that genuinely replaces a 100W bulb cost at lot more than $2.50 where I live.

Even a "no brand" 27W CFL ( direct from China import ) sells for $ 8 to $10 each.

I worked out long ago that the break even point for a CFL occurs at about

1000 hours - but only about half of them make it that long ,without dying or losing almost half their light output.

Wrong.

Well, it doesn't where I live. So who's wrong? Even if the bulb cost $5, you'd still be ahead.

** Says $5.97 when I look.

** 23W CFL does not " genuinely replace" a 100W bulb.
** Says $7.97 when I look.

Plus delivery.

One buck apiece.

The posted reviews are mostly highly negative. I've had no trouble with any of the Home Depot CFLs I've bought -- including these.

I put a free one they handed out at Christmas, 2009, in the "porch light" at my door. It's been going for well over a year -- upside-down.

Home Depot apparently has major quality-control problems. No surprise for a Chinese product.

** My post was:

" A CFL that **genuinely replaces** a 100W bulb cost at lot more than $2.50 where I live."

Then you post an example of CFLs that are total crap.

Lasting only weeks and producing no where near the light of a 100W bulb.

And you cannot even divide 8 by 4 and get it right.

F*ck OFF you bloody IMBECILE !!

No, I just suggested he join him. The method is up to Phil.

Phil, you're so boringly predictable.

Says $3.97 when I look. Less than $2.00 each. You called Sommerwick a liar when he said they cost less than $2.50 each. I proved they did.

That's your opinion. Mine is a 23 watt does in fact "genuinely" replace a 100 watt incadescent.

Say $3.97 when i look. You called Sommerwick a liar when he said they cost less than $2.50. Here they cost less than $1.00 each.

Phil, you are the most crooked poster here in SEC. Don't try to back pedal your way out of this, the prices don't lie and your opinion about a 23 watt CFL not being a "genuine replacement" for a 100 watt incandescent is just obfuscated bullshit.

No, your point was to call Sommerwick a liar when he said he could buy a CFl that was your bullshit description of a "genuine replacement" for a

100 watt incandescent.

You are the lying pig here Phil. You've been handed your ass on this one stop trying to spin your words out of it.
