I understand that 'normal' bulbs won't be sold in France after next year- and that the UK is considering the same idea. Does anyone know about this for certain???
I'm happy to use low energy bulbs in most situations- but as others have mentioned , they are slow to warm up and are dangerous if you need to go downstairs after turning on the light . No-one is surely going to hang on for a minute or so to let them reach full brilliance before setting off down the stairs???
Porch light too needs to be instant.
Nipping to the loo won't be so quick either
