What can one use CFL lamps for?
CFL stands for Compact Fluorescent Lamp, and they are an energy-efficient alternative to incandescent bulbs. CFL lamps can be used to replace these bulbs, and they can be placed both indoors and outdoors.
Are compact fluorescent bulbs cool to the touch?
Relatively cool, yes, especially if you compare them with incandescent lightbulbs.
Can one replace a tungsten bulb with a compact fluorescent bulb?
Yes, if it fits the socket and the light fitting, or lamp fixture, with its cover or shade. You will not be able to dim the compact fluorescent as you did the incandescent (unless you have a really fancy dimmer).
What effects do compact fluorescent bulbs have on computers?
None or a negligible effect. Similarly to incandescent or fluorescent tubes, they light up your work area so you can see what you're doing at the computer.
Do CF light bulbs produce as much heat as incandescent bulbs?

What are two kinds of light bulbs?
incandescent , compact fluorescent
What are the uses for compact fluorescent light?

Information on CFL light bulbs?
A compact fluorescent lamp (CFL), also called compact fluorescent light, energy-saving light, and compact fluorescent tube, is a fluorescent lamp designed to replace an incandescent lamp; some types fit into light fixtures formerly used for incandescent lamps.
