I have to say, once I switched to CFL's my electric bill dropped considerably.

******I just did this...changed all over but 1 stubborn ill fitting fixture..LOL
I can not wait to see the difference in usage!

Like a kid waiting for Christmas..HA HA...so glad you posted such great results from the change!!

Well listening to you all...and as much as I had against these crazy lightbulbs...and the fact that our hydro is introducing smart meters shortly and daytime hydo is going to be almost 10 cents a kwh...
I took the plunge and replace them all...ouch that was expensive! $40 for 6 bulbs. But in my kitchen/living room alone I was using 10 100W bulbs, that are on almost all the time, so I guess I should see a difference on my hydro bill huh?

I guess smart meters are good if you're a night owl...but I don't want to be having to do my laundry all night
I value my sleep and like to be in bed by 9 most of the time...which reminds me, it is past my bedtime now

 

[FarmerChick]

[MorelCabin]

Ours has increased too, and now they are increasing it AGAIN to 'help' pay for the smartmeters! Should a known nothing comes for free...they didn't ask ME if I wanted to buy one
