Most CFLs blowout within a few weeks. I inquired about this problem with the manufacturer and they asked if I have a house built before 1989. If so, the wiring is incomaptible and they are not likely to work as promised. Well, my house was built in 1982 and I do not have the money to rewire the house. I am stocking up on incandecents.
