Warm greetings,
I am new to this section of the forum.
I decided to look at using energy saving bulbs.
I have 7 outside lights, which are expensive to run.
So I buy bulbs from Tesco.
I noticed on the box strange signs with lines through showing what you cannot do.
No wording.
One seems to be saying you can't use with a timer?
ditto with dimmer? switches?
Another has a bulb and a picture of the sun!?
Another a picture of the moon!? All with lines through.
Another with a bulb and 10,000H. With line through it?
Another thing about enclosed fixtures with a line through?
What can you use them for??
All my outside shades are enclosed.
I thought they were cooler in use than standard bulbs?
I have 100w halogens at the moment.
Why all the restrictions?
Henry.
