First I've heard of that, all my CFLs use Edison bases.


Per someone's posting;
I informed myself about the GU-24 interface proposals
and now stand corrected.
I imagine there will be adapters available for some time to come
such that I don't have to scrap my supply of edison base CFLs.
I no longer have any incandescent environmental lighting, and the only
incandescent sources at all is the display on the Kenwood TS-2000.


- The lamps in my refrigerator and in my oven
- are still Medium Screw base incandescents.
-*That and the Festivus lights...

-was- "CFL"? Dirty electric?
