@wide-lite 1000, this is so true. We're in serious trouble. It's super cold in my apartment right now by the way, since I had my heater off. Turned on all my F30T12's and F25T12's... all of them were extremely dim with slight fluttering in the F30T12's, and tons of striations going crazy in the F25T12's. It did not take long, at all, for this apartment to get cold.

I did need to turn on the heat... unfortunately. I'm financially prepared, but I'm probably gonna get one heck of an electric bill. lol ... two nights on the way this week, of -10 degree actual air temperatures. That's only 5 degrees higher than the lowest I've ever witnessed back in 2013, which was -15 degrees. I wonder if my windows will bring clouds into my apartment after I take a shower? That's what happened in my little studio apartment back then...
