A question about compact fluorescent light bulbs.

Yes they do, just so fast you can't see it.

Anything above the 60 hz range and I could care less

I'm not convinced that they cause headaches. Some people may believe that because the enviornments in which they are exposed make them feel bad anyways. And they consume far less electricity.

They are used is light therapy .... here in quebec winter is long and the days are short ..... some people get depressed by that. They say its lack of natural light that affects the moods. We get a suicide season each year right before spring, winter can emotionnaly kill a man. The best way to counter winter blues and give the hours of sun needed to the body to function proprely, is light therapy.

I really don't see how that pertains to what I said.

From General Electric:

"Can I use a compact fluorescent light bulb with a dimmer switch?
To use a compact fluorescent bulb on a dimmer switch, you must buy a bulb that's specifically made to work with dimmers (check the package). GE makes a dimming compact fluorescent light bulb (called the GE Longlife Plus Soft White Energy Saving Bulb) that is specially designed for use with dimming switches. We don't recommend using regular compact fluorescent bulbs with dimming switches, since this can shorten bulb life. (Using a regular compact fluorescent bulb with a dimmer will also nullify the bulb's warranty.)"
