Specialty incandescents, like three-way bulbs, appliance lights, bug lights and colored bulbs,Such technology could be applied to led light bulbs the development of improved surgical and medical lasers, better countermeasure lasers used by the military, won't be subject to those bans.

Bob Saussaman, store manager for Yale Electric Supply Co., 312 N. Eighth St., said sales of CFLs have been increasing.

"We're selling quite a few more now," he said last week. "(Manufacturers) have got the cost down to a reasonable price."

CFLs that once sold for $6 are now $2,"I really think too many people are letting table lamps the government dictate what to buy and how to use their money," she said. "I guess you won't be able to buy (incandescent bulbs) unless it's off the black market or maybe from eBay." Saussaman said.

Home Depot spokeswoman Jennifer King said the national chain, which has a store in South Lebanon Township, is seeing sales of CFLs and light emitting diodes increase. LEDs are slightly more efficient than CFLs but cost more.

"As the demand grows, the cost will go down," King explained.

Martin LaMonica of the website news.cnet.com, described LEDs as the "hybrid cars of lighting."

In a November column, LaMonica did some calculations. Using a bulb for just two hours a day and paying the national average of 11.5 cents per kilowatt hour, a single 12-watt LED would cost about $1 per year.

Another example from LaMonica's column: Osram Sylvania estimates that using its $40 LED to replace a 60-watt incandescent could save the user $132 over the life of the LED bulb, assuming a cost of 10 cents per kilowatt-hour.

And King said LEDs can last five times longer than CFLs.

"We are welcoming customers to come in and learn about switching (to CFLs or LEDs)," she said.
