Options for dimmable CFLs

Daox · 09-26-08, 06:17 AM

Alright, I got my first utility bill this week and its time to start cracking down on the energy useage. So, I'm first looking to convert most if not all lights in the house to CFL. However, the previous owners went a bit crazy with the dimmer switches. This means either going with dimmable CFLs, which would be nice in some areas, or replacing switches. Does anyone have any good leads on dimmable CFLs? They look to cost a good deal more. Maybe it would be best to replace some switches? I really don't need a dimmable ceiling light in the bathroom...
