For now it only bans the 100 watt bulbs and then phases the others out over the next several years.
And while you cannot buy a 100 watt incandescent bulb after 1.1.2012 it will not be until 1.1.2013 when Federal Agents kick in your front door without a warrant and search your home for contraband light bulbs.
Not if you have been diagnosed with SAD. You can then own any format of incandescent bulb you need all over your house.
Yes this is a stupid law, and government (Bush of all people?) overstepped wildly with this.
It’s petty and stupid.
We need to start sending congress home for months at a time.
We have enough laws. We do not need any more.
Not even one.
“until 1.1.2013 when Federal Agents kick in your front door without a warrant and search your home for contraband light bulbs.”
Source? Is there a code telling us this will happen?
Or is this just if they “suspect you’re selling bulbs”?
