I've been interested in electrical stuff for as long as I remember, but I got my first bulb in 2012. It was a ge f15t12/kb and I used it until some crappy electronic undercab fixture shorted and took the bulb out.

Wow, seeing how long some of you have been collecting makes it feel like yesterday for me. I also would like to have a large ceiling fan collection, but don't have the space. I only have one fan in my "collection" right now, and Encon Petite multicolor 30'' hugger.
