Which brands of ENERGY STAR qualified standard “curly” CFLs are eligible?
The CFL bulb must be an ENERGY STAR qualified standard “curly” CFL. Many lighting manufacturers produce ENERGY STAR decorative or covered fluorescent light bulbs, so most participating retailers should have a variety of qualifying brands to choose from. The ENERGY STAR designation is very important because it tells you that these bulbs have met the guidelines that ensure energy efficiency and light output.
