I'm thinking about extending the timer to make up for the later hour of darkness. As an evil oil guzzling conservative it's the least I can do.

In all seriousness mercury is dangerous. Was that just now?ATG wrote:

Guess I'll be the first to say thanks for posting this kmarion. My we have children in our house, and the death lights in their rooms. I'll spend the money to replace.

Perhaps you have an abstract comparison, but not everyone can own and operate their own nuclear power plant. These CFLs probably wouldn't be a big problem if they weren't so main stream and waste regulations were actually adhered to. A nuclear power plant is another story all together. It's not like they take waste products and toss them in the dumpster to go in a landfill.liquix wrote:
cfls are basically the nuclear power of the lighting world.
I thought it was pretty common knowledge that fluorescent lights had mercury gas in them.liquix wrote:

This is very worrisome:
If you clean a broken one up make sure you wash your hands thoroughly before making dinner for the fam.about 5 milligrams, or barely enough to cover the tip of a pen — but that is enough to contaminate 6,000 gallons of water beyond safe drinking levels
I believe it is the potency and potential for risk that goes unnoticed.SenorToenails wrote:

I suppose. I was too cheap to buy the damn things anyway. I live off my incandescents, but in a two-bedroom apartment, it doesn't cost me much for electricity every month.Kmarion wrote:

Ahhhh ... mercury. Sweetest of the transition metals!Kmarion wrote:

i'm shocked. like really shocked.
Who gives a fuck about green. It saves me (well not me, my dad, but same thing) money and lasts longer and is more efficient. I've been using the same fucking bulbs for years now. Infact I've never actually seen one of these bulbs go out yet. I have a feeling that they simply go on forever, silently mocking you as they slowly outlive you.

Mercury gives people alzheimers and autism. Turn off your lights in the day if you want to save money.

I switched to these bulbs without knowing at the time that the tree huggers championed them.
I have old fixtures in my 1 BR apartment that require max 60 watts, but that's not much light so I switched to these bad boys. I had been putting 100 watt bulbs in the fixtures, but they were burning out every month.
Go figure, damn global warming alarmists. What idiots.
Well, at least I can say, I get under 20 mpg on my truck, so I'm doing my part that way
