Have thus the energy saving "Funzeln" (11W) replaced for outdoor lighting at the front door and am thrilled.
The brightness is at many times higher than that of the bulbs with the same power and - this is the best thing about it: the light is right there!
The old power-saving lamps were only light I had long been in the house :-)
Even when talking about the EU decisions has bitched to ban the old "light bulb" we must admit hinerher: the EU has made the right decision!
LED technology is now really far and now I do not know anyone, no reason to stay with the old light bulb!
I'm at it to replace all incandescent and halogen gradually by LEDs :-)
