Winter Static - Humidity in Your Home
I don't need a groundhog to tell me that it's still winter. I keep waking up to new blankets of snow and my natural gas bills look like they are for two months instead of one. What's with that? I caulked, sealed the cracks underneath my doors and generally try to keep my thermostat down.
One thing I hadn't given much thought to this season is the lack of humidity in my house. The first giveaway that something wasn't quite right is major static-electricity.

Thanks from WattBusters
From all of us at WattBusters, we would like to thank everyone who purchased
energy-saving products in 2004.
We've learned a lot about the reasons that
people change old products for new. The motivations were not as cut and dry as we had originally thought.
The main reasons that people bought energy efficient products was to save
money/energy.

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.
