They are meant to Save the Planet (fy fighting, even in Winter, against Global Warming), but, even if they are|were reliable, they are not likely to make it more intelligent, as they are full of mercury (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minamata_disease). In the EEC, they are compulsory, but one can be sued for poisoning if one gets rid of them (if they prematurely fail....). Përhaps, if one wanted to really Save THE Planet, one should use biotechnologies based on specially trained fireflies (one can even eat them, if they die and if one is starving...)

It is amazing how much better they have become and I agree the Philips ones are the best for colour and warm-up time. The 120W equivalent ones (I think 22W real) are brilliant during the winter months. I have been obsessively trying all energy efficient light bulbs I find for over ten years.
