Default CFL problems

CFLs do some things well, but....there are some important problems with certain applications. They are a bad idea for any situation in which you need instant light, like a closet or cellar stairs.

Those stairs are a big deal. I've treated two patients with broken hips sustained falling down stairs - and in both circumstances the family was conceived that they fell from poor lightly when turning on a CFL light to go down the stairs. Something to think about...
