Doesn’t the high purchase price offset the savings we are supposed to have?
Not at all. Although they are more expensive than incandescent light bulbs, CFLs last much longer (from 6 to 15 times longer) and consume much less energy (about 80% less) which means that after a short amount of time, they have paid for themselves in savings. When used extensively or exclusively, a compact fluorescent light bulb will bring a rapid return on investment, generally within two years.
