New Cold Cathode Dimmable and LED Bulbs
For
all of the people who have searched for an energy-saving replacement bulb to use in
dimmable chandelier fixtures, WattBusters finally has the ticket. We just acquired the TCP cold cathode line of light bulbs. The bulbs are excellent for dimming and rapid
on/off cycling applications and they use either 3 or 5 Watts. Light output is roughly equivalent to 15 - 30 Watt incandescent bulbs.
The FlameTip series is a sharp looking bulb that comes in medium or candelabra base and has clear, frosted or white coatings. The bulbs dim very smoothly and are a great energy-saver for any multi-light chandelier. The rated life is 25,000 hours so you pretty much install them and forget them.
WattBusters Super Bowl AD
Watch for the new WattBusters commercial during the Super Bowl on Sunday, February 6th. You can forget about Janet Jackson and Justin Timberlake. This year should be much more family-oriented since there aren't
too many worries about Paul McCartney having a wardrobe 'malfunction' during
halftime. Keep your eyes peeled to stay abreast of all the technological changes in energy savings products.
The
WattBusters ad will be .025 seconds long at a cost of $2000. You'll have to watch closely.
