Quoted from exflexer:CFL's are garbage and are not meant to be used in installations where you are constantly turning on and off the light. They are meant to be turned on and stay on for a period of time.
Man... don't even get me started on "CFLs are garbage".
Every CFL we've installed in our house, I've had to replace within 9-12 months. Every one. Rooms that get a lot of on/off usage throughout the day (e.g. bathroom) we're replacing every 4-6 months.
And the few incandescents I've got left? Most of those have run daily since we bought this house... eight years ago.
/me shakes fist at companies who abandoned good ol' incandescents so they could money grab on CFLs. 5-10x the price of old incandescents, and you gotta replace them at least once a year.
