[quote billb]I use the CFLs rated for outdoor use for in cold locations. It helps to read the specs on the box.
I didn't know there were some rated specifically for outdoor use. I did read the specs on the package. I just re-read the package of the ones I'm having problems with outdoors, and there's no indication they aren't for use outdoors.
I bought these about a year ago.
I might buy some of those full spectrum ones and try those out. So far I have yet to see any CF that doesn't have a lag on startup.
