It has a red 60w tungsten bulb which blew the other day, I thought I'd go green and try a CF thinking I could paint it red with some of that stuff for decorative stain glass effects. After a half hour test the metal fan thing over the top still hadn't started turning due to lack of heat from the CF and so no flame effect..... It now has a 60w red tungsten again, we don't use the fire it's just to fill a hole in the fireplace but my wife insists on having it lit all evening and I sit there looking at it thinking, 60w 60w 60w ...........
Any ideas how to 'upgrade' it ?
