KillJoy Posted April 5, 2009 Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 We are wanting to replace all of the light bulbs in our house w/ the high efficiency ones, even the outdoor flood lights. Does anyone know where a vloume of them can be purchased at a REASONABLE rate. I have looked at Home Depot and Lowes, and I am SURE better deals can be had.

Primera Posted April 5, 2009 Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 Maybe Sam's Club? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mojoe Posted April 5, 2009 Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 I picked up a 8 pack for $10 or $11 at Sam's Club about 5 months ago. Best price I've seen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramsey Posted April 5, 2009 Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 I found 6 bulbs for 8 bucks at lowes, that seemed like a good price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T Rex Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 Walmart sells LED lights (that replace bulbs) at a really decent price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evan9381 Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 walmart again. we just bought lights for all the lamps we had to get for the new house. i *think* they were around $1.40 each, but i could be wrong. i bought blinds and the g/f bought the lamps/bulbs, so i wasnt watching too closely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTQ B4U Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 http://www.1000bulbs.com/?source=1000bulbsaffiliatepfx-k52938 not the cheapest in price, but they carry the best quality. it's a matter of personal preference, but just like HID lights in cars, the CFL's you put in your house are available in a variety of color temps and quality will vary from manufacturer to manufacturer. I've yet to find a bulb in any retail store that is pleasing in color and offers the lumens that I want. most are either shitty hotel yellow with that typical fluorescent green cast or they are hospital waiting room white with a blue cast that resembles my neighbors Integra with 8000k HID's. Cheap ones also don't fire up as fast. we switched our entire house over. in the family living areas, bedrooms, bathrooms, I would suggest 3100-3500k. Kitchens (except dining area), laundry rooms, garages or any working area 3500k-4300k works great. the nice thing about this site/company is they have watts outputs higher than most anywhere....150 to 200 Watt Compact Fluorscent which equals 500/600W Incandescent levels. I have two 85w CFL's in my garage and it lights up the place like the sun is right there. Good luck on the search. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ImUrOBGYN Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 If any of you have sensitive skin, the high effeciency lights can really give you fits. I posted an article here on it awhile back. They give me damn headaches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
