Your choice of lighting in your home matters. Lighting represents a significant portion of the electrical energy used within your home. This 32-Watts Mini EarthBulb will provide the same amount of light as a 75-Watts incandescent bulb while cutting energy use by up to 75-percent. This means that over the course of the long 8,000 hour lifespan you could save over $70 on electricity costs versus an incandescent bulb and also help the planet by eliminating 1000-pounds of CO2 from being released into the air. This 32-Watts CFL light bulb may be used in floor lamps, keyless sockets, post lights, pendant fixtures, and most general lighting applications. Our electronic ballast provides for instant on, no flicker starting. The medium screw base means that it will fit just about anywhere that you are able to use an incandescent bulb.
