Is there a variety of fluorescents?
Our house has so many different types and sizes of fixtures that aren't standard. Huge globe bulbs, little candle flame shaped chandelier bulbs, can lights which are actually labeled "do not use fluorescent bulbs in this fixture".
Are replacements available for those? Do I need to do re-wiring?
Are there bulbs that the flicker doesn't give me a headache and the color doesn't make my face look red, splotchy and horrible in the mirror? If you have some brand recommendations, I'd be willing to try, but all I've tried and experienced drive me nuts.
I did buy a "bug light" replacement fluorescent for an outdoor overhead "can" fixture and it barely fits, as it's longer than the standard bulb, and tends to be dimmer, but it's the only one I have that doesn't annoy me.
