still available, marketed as "rough-service" or "shock-resistant" bulbs for industrial use only. Such bulbs, may actually be no different to normal bulbs but labelled for special purposes are widely available in markets and hardware stores at much lower cost than official alternatives such as CFLs. After bans were first introduced prices of these bulbs rose by 20–25%. A German importer simply reclassified the lamps as "mini heaters" branded "Heatballs", but that was banned shortly afterwards. The EU set a target of 2016 to phase out halogen bulbs with two directives EC 244/2009 and EC 1194/2012. The phase out of the first directive EC 244/2009 originally planned for September 2016 was delayed until September 2018. The second directive EC 1194/2012 was upheld, as part of a review of the lighting directive four criteria needed to be assessed before a phase-out could be confirmed. Issues of ‘affordability’ were under scrutiny, as well as performance, equivalence to existing models and compatibility. The EU confirmed that there was no reason to delay the ban on mains voltage directional halogen lamps, as all four of the criteria had been sufficiently met. The directive EC 1194/2012 relates to mains voltage directional halogen lamps; many common halogen reflector lamps such as D-rated GU10 bulbs are affected. Iceland Iceland is following the same route as the EU. Montenegro Montenegro banned incandescent bulbs from 2020 as part of a phased ban. Norway Norway has implemented the EU directive for the phase-out of incandescent light bulbs and has followed the same phase out route as the EU. There was a half-year delay in implementing the directive compared to the EU, but the phase out occurred at the same time since the affected light bulbs were no longer available from European sources. Russia Russia is phasing out incandescent light bulbs. The production of lamps of 100 watt and more is banned. There are also discussions to ban light bulbs of 50 watts and more. Serbia Serbia banned incandescent light bulbs in mid-2020. Switzerland Switzerland banned the sale of all light bulbs of the Energy Efficiency Class F and G, which affects a few types of incandescent light bulbs. Most normal light bulbs are of Energy Efficiency Class E, and the Swiss regulation has exceptions for various kinds of special-purpose and decorative bulbs. In line with EU rules, Switzerland banned the import and manufacture of halogen light bulbs in September 2018. North
