As you might recall, the incandescent bulb phase-out stems from the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 (EISA 2007). A section of this Act has adopted the title of Incandescent ban over the last few years, except it is not really a ban at all.
As of Jan. 1 of this year, the 60-watt incandescent light bulbâthat classic of the genre; the Edisonian ideal; the signifier that illuminates in your mindâs eye when youâre asked to picture âa light bulbââwas banned forever. Perhaps you prepped by hoarding a box of bulbs in the back of your closet. Or perhaps this news took you by surprise, and you now live in fear of the moment the beloved incandescent in your bedside lamp flickers out. Either way, there will come a time when youâll need to buy an alternative bulb. Donât be scared.
