“The Federal Trade Commission is seeking public comments on proposed amendments to the Appliance Labeling Rule that would require a “Lighting Facts” label on additional types of light bulbs to help consumers select the most efficient bulbs to meet their lighting needs, and a specific test procedure for light-emitting diode (LED) bulbs. Under direction from Congress to examine the effectiveness of light bulb labels, the FTC introduced a new “Lighting Facts” label in July 2010 for medium screw-base light bulbs. The new labels will help consumers choose among incandescent bulbs and high-efficiency compact fluorescent (CFL) and LED bulbs as new energy standards imposed by Congress begin to phase out traditional incandescent bulbs from the market. The new label, which will appear on these bulb packages beginning next year, provides information on brightness, annual energy cost, life, color appearance, and energy use.”
