Cheap Thrills: Free Energy-Saving Light Bulbs

I’ve been meaning to mention this on the blog, but environmental reporter Chris Dunagan beat me to it. Puget Sound Energy is offering to exchange old incandescent light bulbs for new, energy-efficient compact fluorescent light bulbs.

This weekend, PSE’s “Rock the Bulb” booth will come to Lowe’s hardware in Silverdale from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Next weekend, Aug. 8-9, “Rock the Bulb” will be at Lowe’s in Bremerton, and the following weekend, Aug. 15-16, the event will move to Lowe’s in Port Orchard.

    I was very surprised to hear that the quality of CFLs can be good. The best thing to do is buy halogen bulbs. You get the same amount of light as incandescent, but we can save 40% on energy. Admittedly not as much energy savings as with CFLs, but with vastly superior light quality.
