Pigtail light bulbs

I have been dissapointed with the pigtail style flourescent bulbs I have been using for the last couple of years. They seem to last a long time and are supposed to be more energy efficient, but that is where the pros end.

Cons
Start off dim and get brighter - a very annoying feature in a light bulb.
Do not work in electronic light switches like modern dimmers.
Have an unusal light color - I have tried (3) different colors and do not really like any of them. Yellow - blue - bright white.

I have been mostly using the HD brand - n:vision.

Anyone real happy with their expensive light bulbs?
