Daylight bulb query

[helbel]

My work lamp bulb went last night, and I desperately need a replacement.

Should I get one of these blue 'craft' light bulbs:

or should I get the energy saving ones like this:

Has anyone used either?

(I did buy a blue one in B&Q, but forgot my lamp is screw cap so now it's useless to me!)

I've used both - my current one is the energy-saving spiral one and it's better for me because it's in a bendy clip-on lamp. The blue bulb I had in a normal desk lamp so couldn't get it at such a good angle - still better than a regular bulb though.

A quick answer to that is.. the blue ones give a good light but are hot to work under
I use the energy saving bulbs and they are GREAT!! Excellent light. Wouldn't go back to a blue one now!!

You can pick the type of fitting - work fine for me and very reasonably priced!

wow! That's a resounding vote for energy saving.

I shall try them then. Most of my lights at home are energy saving already but I wanted to be sure before ordering something new.

Now if I order from sew and so I could probably get some stash at the same time and save on postage..

Of course! Postage is such a waste of money, you must make the most of it...

Put in stash, total came to 90 quid, removed stash. Replaced with cheaper stash.

Total now under 40... that's reasonable isn't it?

Seems reasonable to me
