Did they cover how those fancy bulbs they replaced everything with are toxic waste AND cost alot more?
Pretty cool that they will save more water than I use in a year with those changes though.
CFL bulbs have a short lifespan when used in areas where they are turned on for short periods of time. I tried using them in my bathroom, but they go bad faster than regular bulbs.
You know, I watched the second video, not the first one, glad to see they are in a Jeep Grand Cherokee (12mpg) a Chevy S10 in the driveway (16mpg)
….
awesome video mate! though they should have said how much it costs to make your house green – like buying all those damned energy efficient bulbs.
Kudos to my academic advisee, Carmen K., on an excellent video.
