Legislation
You won’t be required to throw away your existing bulb but you are sure to be surprise when searching the replacement bulb in the store.
Australian government started to phase-out incandescent bulbs in 2009. Although you are not strictly required to adopt light source that meet lighting legislation. So if you are insisting to adopt your non-energy efficient lamps, it will be difficult for you to find its replacement bulb after it burnt out.
So when choosing a light, it’s important to consider whether its replacement bulb is easy to access.
