You don't need to break the bank on your electrical bill each month in order to enjoy soft bright lights. Toss those short-life, high-energy incandescent bulbs and replace them with these 9-Watt G25 Medium-Base CFLs, a package of two compact fluorescent bulbs that fit in any standard indoor or outdoor bulb base and emit 495 Lumens higher than the 370 Lumens emitted by a 40-watt incandescent bulb. You'll conserve energy with every use without sacrificing the soft glow associated with incandescent lamps, and these long-life bulbs will each last up to 8000 hours, more than five times that of standard, 1500-hour incandescent bulbs.Fluorescent Lighting Benefits Fluorescent lamps aren't just for the workshop any more. Fluorescent lighting provides the performance, color and energy-efficiency you want at an affordable price. Screw a 9-Watt G25 Medium-Base CFL into any indoor or outdoor lamp, recessed lighting fixture, or anywhere else you would install an incandescent bulb to start saving energy: These bulbs will save up to 48 in energy costs over the life of the bulbs. Fluorescent bulbs can even be included with your home automation system: Plug a lamp into an ApplianceLinc for instant remote control using any INSTEON or X10 controller.
