Energy Saving Bulbs
We just switched some lamps over to IKEA Energy-Saving bulbs.

We have been pleasantly surprised and adjusted easily to new light and plan on replacing more bulbs.
Here's a guide for selecting the right energy-saving bulb for whatever fixture or need you have as well as some other articles regarding energy-efficient lighting.
