At this point no one should be specifying fluorescent lamps except in extremely specific situations (for example, I recently specified linear fluorescents and linear LED retrofit lamps in a themed environment set in the 1970s). Why? Not only are LEDs more energy efficient, but more bans go into effect today prohibiting the sale of fluorescent lamps, including the following:
California: Compact Fluorescent (CFL) lamps with pin-bases and linear fluorescent lamps. Note that a screw base CFL ban is already in effect.
Colorado: CFL screw-base lamps, CFL pin-base lamps, and linear fluorescent lamps.
Hawaii: CFL screw-base lamps.
Minnesota: CFL screw-base lamps.
Oregon: CFL pin-base lamps and linear fluorescent lamps.
Note that a screw base CFL ban is already in effect.
Rhode Island: CFL pin-base lamps and linear fluorescent lamps. Note that a screw base CFL ban is already in effect.
For additional information LEDvance has a table of bans, current and future, for all states and Canada here.
