Can I use a CFL in applications involving vibration such as a ceiling fan or garage door opener?

Generally it is not recommended to use CFLs in vibrating environments. Vibration can cause the electronics in the CFL to fail. However, there are special CFL bulbs available for use in a ceiling fan. Ask your Westlake sales associate or check the package for this application.
