    Yeah and they won't dimm unless you get the really expensive ones, and those ones don't last as long. They give off a real sterile white light, like a cool white fluro. Some of the newer ones are like warm white that cost more.
    They do come in the standard shapes now too.....Like the third one across



    They do draw alot less power and less heat. I know abbout this shiit cause i'm a sparky.
