That was the first generation models. The current ones are instant on. Check 
out Home Depot, they have three-paks for $5.

Don't look by the light bulbs, they have them in the lighting department, where 
the light fixtures and ceiling fans are hanging.



 I would like to invent a bathroom fan switch with a built in timer of
 only a couple of minutes, on and off in a couple of minutes instead of
 sucking all the cooling/heating out of the house when u forget to turn
 it off. 

Beat ya to it.

I bought a timer switch that replaces the wall switch. So instead of flipping 
the switch, you turn the knob. The timer is variable from one to thirty minutes.

 they fit in normal light fixtures or are they the ones for free standing 
lamps only ? Most of the ones I've seen you couldn't put in ceiling fan 
lights or anything that has a globe.

Why not just have the fan  light turn on together?
