Outdoor CFL (not rated for any special use) takes about 3 minutes to warm

up at 0�F. Must do wonders for bulb life. Going to try an LED bulb next.

I'm still working on incandescents, so no problem with the OD lights. I

wonder how Prius (et al) owners are making out.

Prius, and other electric cars? www.levitron.com Git yur own High Price charging devices right there. Some of the electrical thingys in your house was probally made by Levitron. Light switches, and stuff. http://spectrum.ieee.org Check out that new Ford car with the solar panel on the roof top.
