Energy Saving Light Bulbs
Posted: August 25, 2010 – 11:08 amIn contrast with a standard light bulb, Energy Saving Bulbs last longer. Cutting-edge technology enables these bulbs to last more than 13,000 hours. An average light bulb would last for only 750 to 1000 hours. There are several factors governing the lifespan of a particular lamp such as voltage levels, fluctuations, etc.
Expect astonishing savings on using Energy Saving Bulbs. Low energy usage and lower maintenance mean that these bulbs are very cost-effective. The release of more than half ton of Carbon Dioxide is prevented over the bulbs lifespan.
By contrast Energy Saving Bulbs use the same technology as fluorescent lights, but they are more compact and efficient. Overtime standard fluorescent lights flicker and emit a mild hum which can be annoying. Energy Saving bulbs are extremely versatile unlike their standard counterparts. The light produced makes these bulbs more comfortable. Many countries are being resourceful by using Energy Saving Bulbs. Countries the world over have come down hard on the use of standard fluorescent bulbs. Energy Saving Bulbs can now be used with dimmer switches. They come in a number of shapes and sizes which provides a choice to meet your needs..
Nearly 80 medium power plants would be out of operation if all households begin using energy efficient lighting. These devices are eco-friendly and proves no harm to the environment. Lower energy usage and longer lifespan compensate for the high cost of an Energy Saving Bulb. Around $50 to $1,500 savings are expected over the 5 year lifespan of an Energy Saving Bulb. Your savings will be clear once you have a look at the Utility Bill in hand.
iTreecycle supplies Energy Saving Bulbs and plants one tree for every product it sells.
