SOMETHING for EVERYONE

There is an abundance of energy-saving light bulbs on the market, but they are not all readily available nor are their facts. Even with numerous "TIPS" being published lately on energy saving bulbs you still don't get the necessary details to make the correct purchase.

Our objective is to provide you with those details and one way is with a comprehensive Bulb Chart so that you can have a clear understanding of the different watts energy saving light bulbs have.

First the basics: How many watts do you buy when replacing an old light bulb?
If you don't replace with the correct wattage and correct design, you will get the wrong amount of light and the wrong distribution of light.
Failure to address these steps appropriately means you
will not maximize your savings!

The following guide is generalized, but you will be well advised. Details such as Lumens and Light Color will follow later throughout this section with links, such as the two in this sentence, thus helping to get maximum savings.

The answer to all of the above is YES. The problem is that you may not find them in a store or your local electrical supply house.

Our objective on this page is to provide you with details about these bulbs so that you know what to ask for when you do not see them in a store or your electrical supply house. After all, you can not ask to buy a specific bulb when you don't know about it.
Coming Soon: a diversified Bulb Chart so that you can have a clear idea of the
different energy saving light bulbs being made.

REMEMBER:
If you don't replace with the correct wattage and correct design, you will get the wrong amount of light and the wrong distribution of light.

Failure to address these steps appropriately means you will not maximize your savings!

    Bill Lauto, Environmentalist, Energy Consultant
    Bill Lauto came on the scene in 1981 to present facts and teach details about how we can save our environment without making  sacrifices. He demonstrated how correctly implementing the technology we already obtained in 1981, allowed us to save Money, Energy and Earth. He voice was one among the few who taught green facts long before anyone else talked about sustainability. 
       Bill Lauto's Credentials
    By 1994 the Internet was being explored as a tool to provide energy saving information to all of America by Mr. Lauto. Having the foresight, he first launched the Light Bulb HotLine web site off of the company's Domain in 1996. Then in April of 2001, EnergyHotwire became a resource. Today,
    GoingTrueGreen.com presents decades of info to dispel mis-information and provide the facts about truly Going True Green.
