I've not used 100W in ages. But I don't like the banning of incandescent lightbulbs at all. Not unless there are real replacements for them. I now have 1 energy efficient lamp. It takes a second before it even turns on! We do have several LED lamps, but their light is generally "colder". But I do love the LED technology.

The banning of 100W's I don't mind that much. 60W and even 40W (with the right fixture) should be more than enough.
