Never, never, ever again. I can't stand the weird glow in the first 3 minutes, and I've had 2 "catastrophically" fail on me in under a year. One exploded, burnt a nice hole on the wood floor below (and lef a tiny smear of mercury). The other got so hot at the base it melted the plastic around the lamp socket it was in. I'm done with those damed things...
