![]() I have a few CFL bulbs 5 energy smart one other type pictured.
These are free you just pay actual shipping or if you are close just pick them up. I am close to Greenville SC. I have switched to LED lights. Last edited by pinballlooking; 03-05-14 at 07:52 AM.. |

![]() I remember when those Bubs first came out, I was all over them.
Now I am buying the LED's and can't wait for the next innovation that kicks the led's to the curb. I suspect that will be a organic material that gets excited when energized and lights up. |

![]() If nobody wants them in a couple days they will go to the dump. I was never a fan of this kind of bulbs.

![]() I'd try to give them away locally. Use freecycle.org or put em up on craigslist for free. Shipping pretty much would cost as much as buying them new I think. I just talked with a friend a few days ago and she said she picked some up at the local dollar store for 50 cents a piece.

![]() You are right if they are selling that cheap it is not worth it. I did not realize they were that cheap.
Just delete the post. |

![]() I suggest giving the bulbs to a charity of your choice , they may well be used to swap out some incandescent bulbs and redeem their worthiness.. I still have half a dozen in my fixtures waiting to die, they last a long time in those fixtures you hardly use.. decades.
I always endured those under powered and dim CFL bulbs , until the last few years when I started replacing the Dim cfl's with LED's. They currently have 100w LED fixtures that will light up a yard or barn. Last edited by ecomodded; 02-07-14 at 09:09 AM.. |
