They're all 23w cfl.....but now I am replacing them with 15w led bulbs.The two smaller fixtures have 12 bulbs each and the middle one has 16 bulbs.

I'm really pissed with that cfl craze about 2 years ago

me and everyone I know dumped incandescent bulbs for cfl's

only to learn later they have as much as 3 times the mercury in one

and the rule was/is you had to inform the EPA if you broke more than 3..?

...so I just knew sooner or later I'd be breaking them ..!!!
