What kind of energy efficient light bulb will work in a bathroom fan?

Question

i noticed a question earlier, the answers mostly dealt with large room ceiling fans. my problem is a bathroom exhaust fan. i put a mini-cfc, but the vibration of the fan was making the light flicker so much i had to replace it. so, i was wondering if there was any special vibration resistant, (i've seen the incandescent vibration resistant bulbs), in the cfc, or is there another option.

(this is a regular base, but smaller globe sized fan)

Answer 1

appliance bulbs might be more sturdy.

but don't produce a lot of light.

if there is another light source that you can use when you need more light, that might be the way to go.

Answer 2

I solved this problem by simply leaving the light and fan off. It uses far less energy than any alternative and makes draining the lizard a bit of an adventure. Of course, the maid is a bit peaved, from time to time and one's eyes can water a bit. But there can be no quarter in the war on Global Warmin'.

Answer 3

why dunt you get an energy savor.....small incandesent ones with high output... vibration wont harm them, unless its so bad that the glass breaks....   or u can also padd the sides of the holder using a heat resistent foam.
