Yeah this sounded crazy to me too, except in my house I do have a ceiling fan with a bulb in it 20 ft up that is a pain in the butt to change.

- ars 15y agoCompletely unrelated to the topic at hand, but install a CCFL (not to be confused with CFL) bulb in it. Cold cathode florescent light. They last longer than LEDs (10,000 - 20,000 hours), use less power than LEDs (they use the same as CFLs), can be dimmed, and have no filament so they don't care about fan vibration, and are true instant on. It boggles my mind that they have not completely pushed CFLs out of the market. But so far they are a semi-niche item. You can tell them apart because they have far more coils than a CFL, but very skinny ones (much skinnier than a CFL).
