I just replaced my burnt out light bulbs in my room with compact fluorescent ones & when ever they are on, they make a really annoying humming/buzzing sound like the larger ones do. Are there any particular types or brands that don't or am I stuck with the sound.

I have the GE brand in all my lighting fixtures and have no sound at all. In my shed I have a 4 footer and the ballast makes the humming sound, not the bulb.

I use them all over my home and have never heard a sound from them. Maybe upgrade to a better brand?

Good for you for using something better for the earth!

The BEST part is when you turn them OFF .... it STOPS! And, not only that, you don't have any more of that gikky fluorescent lighting!

Generally not. If its new you exchange it or switch to a better brand.

GE
