What's going to be next, the incandescent light bulb?

They did try to ban incandescent light bulbs. Or were you not being sarcastic and I missed that one.

Tried? They did ban it unless you know something I don't.

Fair enough.. Not "banned" but "no longer meet standards so cannot be produced". https://www.gelighting.com/inform/halogen-and-incandescent-light-bulb-ban-explained#:~:text=Purchasing%20or%20using%20halogens%20and,will%20no%20longer%20be%20produced.

Still. I can go to any store that sells lightbulbs in a 20 mile radius and can still buy them. It is a "ban" in name only and for "usa" production?

I do have much better luck with LED based bulbs personally but I dont have a off-grid cabin in the woods anywhere.. If I did I am not sure that lightbulbs would be my highest want/need.

I really hate this "regulate it out of existence" type of thinking/laws. One day, it will just not be worth allowing you to breath more than 3 times a minute... or you will need to be removed x.x
