Vu1 has posted a new blog entry on their website:

This new post is regarding the misleading information being put out about CFL efficiency and power factor. Most CFLs are only about half as efficient as they claim to be. Apparently, Vu1 has gotten the efficiency of their power factor up impressively high allowing them to, in effect, do a bit of gloating. That will help immensely once they jump into competitive battle.

There's also a link to a pretty cool video of a guy running an incandescent stage light with a small generator then switching to a tree of CFLs that are advertised to require, collectively, less electricity than the stage light. The CFLs are too much for the generator.
