Why choose an ENERGY STAR qualified light bulb?

Energy Star qualified CFLs use about 75 percent less energy than standard lighting. For the greatest savings, place CFLs in light fixtures you use most.

Save Time and Effort
ENERGY STAR qualified bulbs last up to 10 times longer than incandescent light bulbs. That means fewer bulb purchases and fewer bulb replacements, great for hard to reach places.

Preserve Natural Resources
Using energy efficient lighting in your home helps preserve natural resources.
