I've been using the CF "bulb" type replacements in the house for a while now. There's newer ones out over the past year or so that claim to be in the 65K range. They definately make the colors pop and the wife likes them for putting on makeup as it doesn't look "diffrent" once she walks outside like her other bulbs did. side by side the older CF bulbs look reddish more so like the incandecent they replaced. the newer ones are worth the diffrence to me but they'll come down in price as they get more popular and get more time on the market as with most everything
