That's why on the florescent package they tell you the true usage vs. equivalent output. For example, I use 15W florescent bulbs that each have the equivalent output of 1 60W incandescent (regular) bulb. However, it only draws 1/4 the electricity, making my electric bill cheaper. If you ran 6 10W florescents, holy crap, you'd be getting requests for landing clearance ;)]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[uagent]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 14th 2007 6:23PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Korean researchers develop uber-cheap solar cells]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/14/korean-researchers-develop-uber-cheap-solar-cells/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/14/korean-researchers-develop-uber-cheap-solar-cells/</guid><description><![CDATA[$6 for ONE bulb, for the lifetime of the panel though.
