<p>In the United States, it is only the incandescent light bulbs 100 watts and higher that will be discontinued. All remaing bulbs from 75 watts and lower will still be manufactured, albiet with strict energy efficiency guidelines in place; so almost all incandescents you see in the future will probably be Halogen bulbs.</p>
<p>Fortunately for us goo-heads in the United States, we will never have to worry because 40W APPLIANCE bulbs will NEVER be discontinued. To date there are no alternative…</p>

<p>Thanks for the link on the 30W appliance bulbs Dr.WHAT?! Would these be good for a goo-kit 32oz globe instead of using a dimmer switch?</p>

<p>You're right!</p>
<p>Governments way of going "green" is more "$$$ green" than "eco green".</p>
<p>Here in France, to protect the planet, they made a new law which push people to buy diesel cars instead of gas cars.</p>
<p>The result: ok less CO2, but far more carcinogen particules with diesel.</p>
<p>How green is that? :-)</p>
<p>Banning incandescent is the same:</p>
<p>we'll "save" some electricity, but we'll gain other health problems...</p>
<p>Poor planet!</p>

<p>Incandescents aren't going to be phased out yet. The bill got shot down, that God. I was worried not only for the Lava Lamps but for all of my other lighting as well. I'm all for environmental conservation but those fluorescent bulbs are just awful. </p>

<p>When it comes to the possibility of phasing out the incandescents (especially the R20-100W), I'm going into "Doomsday Prepper" mode. I've already bought sixteen 100watters (10,000 hours each) for the four Grandes that I have. And I've bought four bulbs each for my smaller 25-40W lamps. I believe the smaller bulbs will take a little longer to phase out, but when I hear that it's in the works, I will buy many more to last a life time. </p>
