Seen this report?
My boys have a 25 or 15W lamp lit all night, now they tell me it is dangerous, and that I should use yellow or red, as low a wattage as possible.
Anybody got any links to ultra-low wattage yellow lamps with BC caps? Or shall I just use a 25W GLS in yellow. The problem is, when somebody says use "Low Wattage" lamps, how low do they mean? Compared to 60/100W lamps, 25W IS low, but the lowest wattage lamp with a BC cap I can find is 3W, but that is a CFL....
Am I being paranoid?
The missus BTW turned off the kids lights last night saying that if it was dangerous, we had better stop straight away. But they've been on for (in the elder kids case) the last five years.......
