I heard that they use a see of energy when you first switch them on, afterwards use a lot smaller amount while they stay on. Is the initial amount more than, say a regular 60w bulb? If so, what is the length of time where on earth the two use the same amount of enthusiasm? This isn't an exam question - I lately want to know if it is worth using energy-saving bulbs where they are used frequently for short period of time - cupboards, bathrooms etc.
