Though...Yes good point, as far as legislation goes.<br />Though overall, I would also be against government lifespan standards, as with any government product regulation unrelated to product usage safety.<br /><br />As always, they compromise product characteristics and product choice: At least with incandescents, lifespan and brightness tend to be trade-offs.<br />For products generally, shorter lifespans might be cheaper, leading to a debate on sustainability etc as covered on earlier posts here you can look up. <br /><br />Short lifespans are not of themselves bad - people might not use a product much, or only stay a short while where a product needs to be used eg light bulbs.<br /><br />If there is a problem - deal with the problem:<br /> Instead, say impose recycling mandates, deposit-return requirements and so on, as applicable, to lessen waste impact on nature.Lighthousehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08123172670211101092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1316303495378677857.post-10636075012018570172012-06-28T13:08:58.293-04:002012-06-28T13:08:58.293-04:00There is also a lifespan minimum requirement 1000 ...There is also a lifespan minimum requirement 1000 hours like with the old bulbs.<br />If the new bulbs really lasted longer<br />and they wanted to think environmentally they could have raised the lifespan standard!Jim, Seattlenoreply@blogger.com
