Menard's is now selling 200 watt equivalent bubs now. They are expensive, but I love them as they give lots of light in my basement. Even at $9 a bulb it is still much cheaper than putting in an expensive fixture to give out more light.

I suppose I'll just be a "hit and miss" poster. ;) I did want to share something about flourescent bulbs, though... >I found that flouro's don't use more power to start >than when they are running. I was very glad to hear this, because these bulbs are the ONLY kind I can use in my basement. When people walk upstairs, regular bulbs will blow downstairs, and it gets expensive replacing them every day. The floro's don't break, even when I have children playing and jumping above them. If anyone has problems like this, the flouro's are the answer. ;) -mags Maggie Jusiel Piano Tuner Winds & Strings Teacher PO Box 1234 Athens, WV 24712-1234 (304)952-8615 <mags@magsmusic.net> <http://www.magsmusic.net> _______________________________________________ pianotech list info: https://www.moypiano.com/resources/#archives
