Way before the invention of compact fluorescent and LED lamps, simple drawn

Kevin,
You must use a lot of bulbs to save that much. Normally in my house I

Halogen I would think would be more expensive to make. I cannot imagine
too many people buying them for home use. Most are happy with the CFLs.

I heard on the news today that the companies are coming with a new
energy saving Incandescent blub for those who till want to use them. Any

something else that may cause noise?
