Step 7My Bedroom

My Bedroom
My bedroom has one main light fixture. A ceiling fan with four lights in it. Recently I switched out of them because they were always getting burnt out. Now they have been going strong, and are continuing to go strong.

I switch these lights on every time I go to my bedroom. They are often used, and they provide awesome light.

Once I switched out of my old Incandescents in my room, the light seemed to be very much brighter. I felt that the light was better, since I switched to the CFLs.

I sleep in the attic, so it tends to get hot. There is a great Air Conditioning unit, and now the money saved can go towards paying for the AC.

This is a great idea to save energy and all but if you dim the lights often at night then these bulbs won't work for you without expensive dimmer switches.
