I am not sure how you would accomplish that in a home environment? You would have to increase the Voltage somehow. CFL bulbs have electronic circuitry in their bases. That circuitry would be more sensitive to Voltage changes than a simple filament bulb. You could expect a shorter 'Life' of the bulb at a higher voltage.
You can exceed the equivalent light output, but not the actual maximum wattage for a fixture. If the fixture is rated for 75 watts maximum, you can install a 23 watt CFL, even though the "equivalent" light output is equal to a 100 watt incandescent. The light fixtures are rated based on their ability to dissipate heat or the power handling capacity you will not exceed either as long as the actual wattage is below the rated capacity.
Yes, CFL light bulbs can be used in recessed lighting.
Yes, it is recommended that you recycle neon and CFL bulbs. The EPA encourages it and there are recycling facilities within every state.
The fulform of CFL bulbs is compact fluorecent light
Most recessed lighting will use a CFL as you can now get much smaller CFL bulbs. The Juno Lighting Group ICPL626E (65$) and the Halo H272ICAT (40$) are both designed to use CFL bulbs.
The term CFL bulbs stands for Compact Flourescent Bulbs. You can find general information on sites such as Wikipedia or you can look at CFL's for sale at online stores such as Lightbulbs-direct and LampShopOnline.
Yes, there are now government regulations on engery efficent lights, so this means they are all created the same way.
As long as the CFL has an intermediate base it can be interchangeable with any ordinary light bulb that has an intermediate base. Look on the packaging as to comparability. Look on the box for equivilant outputs between lamps to compare wattage bulbs to CFL's.
The veggies grow best under CFL bulbs indoors are herbs and tomato.
yes and no
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.
No, compact fluorescent light bulbs generally are not autovolt.
No, CFL bulbs are directly replaceable in existing light fittings.
