Do these exist: "Instant on" or very rapid start CFL???
Is there such a thing as a true "instant start" CFL which produces full intensity brightness as soon as it is turned on? I am trying to find an indoor bulb which will not require any warm up period to attain full brightness.
I know that claims are made, but wonder if they are exaggerated or true. General Electric, for example, actually labels their bulbs as "instant on" but they are not 'instant'.
I also realize that colder temperatures prolong the ionization / warm up period, but my application is for indoor use at normal 70 degree F temperature.
Thanks for any advice.
