I use em, have for a very long time. Disposing of them does creep me out, so I save them in a sealed container when they do go out, and I plan to take those to the proper facility when it fills up. So far, I have about 3 bulbs over the past 5 years go out, and this is after 10 years of using them.

That said, I use incandescent lights in some parts of my home, like critical lighting, bathrooms, and places where the light will only be used intermittently.

We tried some in a dining area fixture with four bulbs in glass flowers that are open on the bottom. The bulbs didn’t last as long as incandescents, must have been heat build up, don’t know what else it could be.

I believe both types bulbs have a place but it really ticks me off they’re in effect trying to outlaw the old ones.
