I love those things-I have them everywhere in my apt. Where else are you going to get 4-5 X gain in efficiency? It still doesn't make any difference I can notice on my power bill, cause my lights are almost always off.

I think the power company is giving them away free for the next few weekends. Home Depot IIRC.

Dialing it up to 25 W. Sweet.
