It even emits mercury into the air when that area of carpet is rustled for weeks after the incident. This is undiluted mercury localized in your home where you and your kids and your pets live every day. I personally don't like the idea of highly toxic chemicals being brought into my living space contained in a thin, super fragile, glass container.

You can get 'em refurbished for $80, they are the size of a power brick and it has a real slick configuration utility - even if you haven't seen the light and are still using Windows :) I don't leave home without mine!

One burned out in less than 2 weeks. The other burned out in less than a week. I replaced one of them and that one burned out in 3 days. This failure rate is unacceptable. All three were screwed into different recessed fixtures, which could have contributed to the problem. Five months ago I purchased 2 CFLs from Home Depot and used them in hanging fixtures. Those two are still working -- knock on wood. During the past month I purchased 2 CFLs from supermakets at large. One burned out in less than 2 weeks. The other burned out in less than a week.
