We are constantly trying to find small ways that we can save energy and be more “green”. One small way that we can all contribute is by switching out something as simple as a light bulb. If you are not a fan of the funny looking compact fluorescent light bulbs than I have a great solution for you. Sylvania has a light bulb that is a halogen bulb (normal traditional looking light bulb) that can replace your current 60w bulbs using only 43w of energy, that is an energy savings of 28%. Think about how quickly that adds up if you replace all your current light bulbs with the Sylvania SuperSaver Halogen!
I recently replaced two of my lamps light bulbs with the Sylvania Halogens to review the product. The new light bulbs are a bit smaller but fit right into the old light bulbs spot. The new bulbs were slightly dimmer (and by slight I mean I had to really stare at the lightbulbs which I don’t recommend doing to your eyes). However, it was so small of a change that I doubt anyone would notice. I have tried compact fluorescent light bulbs in the past but I don’t like the look of them in my ceiling fan lights where they are exposed. It looks weird. I really like that these energy-saving bulbs look just like the regular light bulbs. I will use these instead in my ceiling fans or wherever light bulb are actually visible in my house. It is the best of both worlds, I get the look I want and the earth gets the energy savings that it desperately needs!
