I thought I was the only one. I have several around the house and it happens with two different bulbs! They are on different circuits. They only thing I can figure is that they are on three-way switches (two switches, one on each side of the room) and the switches are the type that are illuminated so you can see the switch in the dark. One flickers every two or three seconds, the other goes much faster. I'm wondering if it has something to do with the illuminated switches or my voltage. But I do have another CFL on a three way with illuminated switches that does NOT flicker. Can't figure it out, it's been going on for years.
