Re: An end to high-energy bulbs

["Rob Iles" <rob.iles@xxxxxxxxx>]

*just* on topic...

Does anyone know of a CFL that is compatable with CBus Dimming controllers?

I'm also looking for recessed fittings that will accomodate the bulbs.

Any suggestions? (I realise this may get buried, so if I don't get any
replies, I'll post under a new heading in a day or two, if the mods dont
mind).

Cheers,

Rob
