They were in Beacon Lighting, but I can't find them on their website, sorry. If I pop in again, I'll memorise the model name and try to find a picture to put here.

The compact flourescents that we have in our rented house are not the ones that you can buy in Coles and Woolworths, but in Bunnings. We also had trouble with a number blowing within hours of first use, but they are all working well at the moment. Try getting a refund on a CF that blows within a few hours of first use, and you won't be buying them for the supposed cost benefits! So I'm just reading up on this ecosystem of lights.
