you need to get these light bulbs.they do take jus as long to warm up as normal energy savers but they are 3 times as bright when they reach temp!

As with many spiral energy-saving lamps, this is a slightly different shape to other brands. Which is a shame, as I would like to be able to buy regularly and not have a mix of designs of lamps in a multi-socket fitting.

Although these lamps do still take a while to reach full brightness, they are quite bright even when first switched on, and reach full brightness after about 15 seconds. I normally slag off energy-saving lamps because they\'re useless for anywhere which doesn\'t need illuminating continuously, but these have almost converted me! I\'ve been using 6 of them for about 6 weeks so far, in a situation where they get turned on about half-a-dozen times each day, for between 5 and 20 minutes at a time, and they\'re all still working. That may not sound very impressive, but compared to some other lamps it\'s a major achievement! If they\'re still working after 6 months, I\'ll upgrade my rating to 5 stars!

We\'ve found another are in which these mini daylight bulbs excel - in chandeliers. On a 5-arm chandelier, we\'ve achieved almost double the brightness for less than half the energy consumption. The tightness of the spirals means that these bulbs look very similar to conventional candle bulbs, although they\'re so bright that you don\'t want to look directly at them for too long. We tried low energy candle bulbs and found that they were too dim and slow to reach full incandescence. Not the case with these.If you\'re worried about spoiling the look of a chandelier, I\'d strongly recommend giving these a try. They\'re very good value, yet still look smart either off or on.

I\'ve tried many different makes of Energy Saving Bulb, and this make is by far the best. They reach full brightness almost instantly, and the clear white light is very bright - much more powerful than others I\'ve found. Excellent for offices and workshops, they really cheer things up.A good replacement for 60W incandescent bulbs if you\'re looking to save on running costs, though I tend to use the 15W version if there\'s only one bulb in the room. Highly recommended.
