Danny Seo of Simply Green has finally found a compact fluorescent light that he can recommend. His choice? GE's Energy Smart Dimmable CFL bulb, which retails for about $11. The 15 watt is equivalent to a regular 60-watt bulb is dimmable, and will save you an average of $45 in energy costs over the life of the bulb. He says this CFL doesn't have the harshness people often complain about when it comes to CFLs--he even went around to each of the lights in his place to test out this bulb and was thrilled with the results.

Popular Mechanics surveyed CFLs and found the n:vision to give better color and more accurate wattage, but if Danny Seo says it's so, then we better spend $11 on it! (NB: this will buy you 2-3 of the n:vision bulbs at Home Depot.) (No, I don't work for n:vision or Home Depot.)
