All the motion lights are going to be useless with the new compact FL. I have noticed that the prices on exterior floods has gone through the roof at Lowe's if they have any on the shelves. $10 for the individual ones here. I guess everyone will just buy the $26 LED?
All the people with dimmers putting in said CFL are also screwed. I know some are compatible, but your average consumer is not capable or willing to take the time to sort it all out at the store. This was one of the most bone-headed legislative moves ever. I have many customers who are in their mid 70s and older. They simply can not see well enough with the crappy light from CFL or LED. The light produced is too diffuse, and in many instances it is dangerous for them to have reduced vision in areas like kitchen and bath.
I love how all the Pkgs say that the 60 watt incand. is the new 100w incand. Like saying that makes it true.
