Unfortunately
there is a lot of FUD (fear, uncertainty & doubt) about these
bulbs. There are those that say this bulb will save the world
and those that say it will pollute the world...
Simply buying "Energy Star" rated bulbs answers most of
the doubts that the naysayers have. We have been around
fluorescent bulbs with mercury for decades and the simple
fact is that the amount of mercury used is getting smaller and
as the technology progresses, eventually to near zero.
Don't buy cheap bulbs without the Energy Star rating...
