The Inside Outside Guys ~ Saying Farewell to Incandescent Lights
From The Detroit News | By Ken Calverley and Chuck Breidenstein
DETROIT, August 10, 2023 ~ We would have gotten there anyway.
When the government tried to ban the production of incandescent lights a decade ago, there was a huge uproar, and for good reason.
At the time there was really no viable, affordable, alternative to our beloved light bulbs.
The new energy efficient bulbs were pricey and confusing, and we all thought we would have to replace our fixtures to accommodate them.
Television shows featured story lines with imaginary black markets for 60- and 100-watt incandescent bulbs.
The popular alternative bulb at the time was a compact fluorescent, CFL, and its price point was such that guests in hotels were actually stealing the bulbs from fixtures to take home.
