With a lot of notable exceptions
Surprisingly, there is a whole slew of exempt special-purpose bulbs that will continue to be manufactured, according to the Energy Department. Here’s what manufacturers can still build and stores can continue selling:
Appliance lamps, including fridge and oven lights
Black lights
Bug lamps
Colored lamps
Infrared lamps
Left-handed thread lamps
Plant lights
Floodlights
Reflector lamps
Showcase lamps
Traffic signals
Some other specialty lights, including marine lamps and some odd-sized bulbsUnreal, I can’t even remember the last time I saw an incandescent bulb…
Better late than never I guess!
I moved into my condo in 2010. The bathroom includes a vanity mirror with 6 incandescent bulbs over it. I only have 3 on at any given time since all 6 on at the same time is annoyingly bright. I want to replace them but it seems wasteful to chuck them in the garbage when they still work.
