Light-bulb manufacturers can no longer offer the traditional 100W light bulb for sale in California.
Implementing a federal standard one year earlier than required, consumers will soon only be able to purchase high efficiency versions of the conventional 100W light bulb. High efficiency options include incandescent halogen and compact fluorescent types that offer the same light output in the same package but draw only 72 and 23 watts respectively from the ac supply.
For more information see the FAQ on the California Energy Commission's website.
