Why are incandescents still legal in African countries? « on: November 04, 2021, 04:06:41 PM » Author: WorldwideHIDCollectorUSA
When I have been looking at maps for incandescent lamp bans, I have noticed that most countries in Africa have no incandescent bulb bans. Why is this so?

The other reason is that with incandescent bulbs, it's just a question of 'plug and play' there are no complicated ballast requirements to work out.
