I have heard low energy bulbs are more dangerous, is this true?

Low Energy Lightbulbs are much safer to use in confined areas as they produce very little heat when compared to the very hot standard incandescent bulbs. They are much safer where children are concerned and many are now used in children’s light fittings for this reason.

Low Energy Lightbulbs run so much cooler that there will be no more browned or burnt lampshades or nasty scorch marks on ceilings.
