[APD] Lighting

[Lief Brittan Youngs <liefy at yahoo_com>]

My utility company is raving about compact flourescent lighting being the way to save huge costs on electricity even though the light bulbs are more expensive. Can anyone veryify this?
 
Also, I have been told for same amount of light you need a lower wattage compact flourescent bulb. If there the same savings and added light are the same in aquarium lighting? Or are the compact light fixtures and bulbs too expensive?
 
Any other opinions?
