Re: CFL's In Recessed Can Lights
ESI, How "no out of pocket expense"? Back door?
"Guaranteed" reduction in energy bill? I',ve spent tens of thousands of dollars from my roof to AC to EnergyStar appliances and still the invoices go up every year. "Positive cash flow" In my business means more coming in than going out. Not going to happen. I'll ignore the rest. I keep up on this stuff and live in FL. If I covered my entire roof with the latest photo-cells AND planted approx. 20 wind generators that the county would never allow, I'd still lose money. When the return comes in 3-5 years solar will become viable same with wind. It will all come down to your location.

Re: CFL's In Recessed Can Lights
Where does one purchase these CCFLs and how much are they compared to CFLs or LED?
Please, educate me.

If your trade of "higher education" is a contracting trade I have not yet been made aware of, then please elaborate for us.

Re: CFL's In Recessed Can Lights
Good man for confessing.
However, what is your angle in posting in a contractors only site?

Re: CFL's In Recessed Can Lights
Yes but it's also to our benefit to worry about ROI. Yes a particular bulb may be more energy efficient than another but if it costs 5x's as much, it may not be worth it.
BTW, I checked out those bulbs and I'm saying not ready for prime time. The largest wattage was only 40W equivalent in any normal base. Also, they are over $15.

You even said you couldn't post a site in your previous post. My question stands-what are you doing here?

![]() Thanks for the info but this is not something I believe will be a benefit to any of my customers at this time. ...and now back to CT...

Re: CFL's In Recessed Can Lights
And my question to you still stands.
