Dept of Water & Power in Los Angeles is giving away 2 CFLs to every household door to door.

LADWP Compact Fluorescent Light Bulb Distribution:

The Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (LADWP) is pleased to launch its city-wide distribution of energy-saving compact fluorescent light bulbs (CFLs). LADWP representatives will be out distributing two energy saving bulbs, along with other energy saving materials to all of our residential customers. The door-to-door deliveries will take several months, but we will be reaching all of our residential customers.

These energy saving light bulbs can help you save up to $68.00 on your electrical use. If a customer installs the two bulbs, which we encourage each customer to do, in place of traditional incandescent light bulbs, a customer will save an estimated $34 for each bulb over the bulb’s life. So, don’t just place the CFLs in your utility drawer or cupboard, install them immediately and start saving energy and money.

CFLs offer many advantages over traditional incandescent bulbs. A CFL lasts for approximately 10,000 hours compared to 1,000 hours for an incandescent bulb. CFLs operate at a lower temperature and are less of a fire danger. CFLs help reduce your air conditioning use, as the lack of heat results in a cooler environment.

CFLs can reduce your energy use and can help make Los Angeles the biggest “green” city in the United States. When a customer installs and use CFLs, we are all helping to reduce global warming. Each bulb used reduces the burning of 400 pounds of coal in energy generation, and lowers the emission of CO2 and other greenhouse gases. We hope that each residential customer will use these bulbs and remember to use CFLs each time a light bulb needs to be replaced.

Providing these energy saving bulbs is just one way that the LADWP wants to help its customers become more energy and water efficient.

For questions or more information on the CFL distribution, please call (213) 367-4614 or email.

Why is the LADWP Distributing CFL light bulbs?

CFLs are one of the simplest and most effective energy saving tools available. A single efficient CFL bulb can reduce an annual electrical bill by $8 to $10. Two CFLs can save you approximately $85-$100 over five years.

CFLs are much more energy efficient because they do not use heat to produce light and as a result last longer. This makes them cooler to the touch and good to use in hard-to-reach applications. A CFL bulb will last 10,000 hours compared to 1,000 hours for a traditional bulb. CFLs use less energy and thus reduce energy demand, which helps to reduce power plant emissions of pollutant greenhouse gas

While I have not specifically tried Arnicare, I do regularly use the main ingredient in it’s pure form, ARNICA MONTANA.  I picked up a small jar in Mexico about six months ago.  I just went back a month ago and got ten more jars.  (They only cost about $2.35 a jar there, depending on the dollar/peso exchange).  I was simply amazed at how well this product works!  I used to hang my feet off of the side of the bed just to go to sleep at night, because the sheets even made my feet hurt and burn.  Docs still don’t know what the problem is.  Not the point, though.  My point is that if you have any type of muscular/nerve pain, this is a truly amazing herb.  Whether you get the sample here, (and you have to be fast, because they only offer a few a day), or get the pure form, I implore all fellow sufferers out there who don’t want to take pain pills, or they do not work for you, to try this. 

Good luck, and live pain free.
