Yes, although cost issues may prohibit. I've seen companies that make LED/lightbulbs.
Yes, with a retroreflector. One form of a retroreflector is 3 mirrors all mutually perpendicular like the corner of a cube.
A 23 watt cfl will give off roughly 1600 lumens. However that is only within a few inches of the bulb.
The cfl's proved total efficiency.
CFLs have two main components: a magnetic or electronic ballast and a gas-filled tube (also called bulb or burner). Replacement of magnetic ballasts with electronic ballasts has allowed the development of smaller lamps directly interchangeable with more sizes of incandescent bulb. Electronic ballasts contain a small circuit board with rectifiers, a filter capacitor and usually two switching transistors. The incoming AC current is first rectified to DC, then converted to high frequency AC by the transistors, connected as a resonant series DC to AC inverter. The resulting high frequency is applied to the lamp tube. Since the resonant converter tends to stabilize lamp current (and light produced) over a range of input voltages, standard CFLs do not respond well in dimming applications and special lamps are required for dimming service
Yes. If voltage leads the current, the impedance is inductive (this would be the case if the load is a motor). If current leads the voltage, the impedance is capacitive (this would be the case for a CFL light bulb).
Lighting is not one of the major electrical costs in a house, especially if CFL (compact fluorescent lamps) or LED bulbs are used. If lighting costs are an issue, get rid of incandescent bulbs and halogen bulbs. CFLs are cheaper and nearly as efficient as LEDs.
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.
If you are referring to fluorescent and CFL lamps, it can never be totally eliminated. These are mercury vapor arc lamps using a phosphor to turn the UV to visible light. They have reduced the mercury dramatically, but it can't be totally eliminated. If all fluorescent and CFL lamps were banned and lighting was all converted to LED then use of mercury could be stopped. However most LED lamps cost at least ten times what CFL lamps cost.
The power consumption is lower on CFL lamps. Result, you save money operating them.
Compact fluorescent bulbs used to be all or nothing. They couldn't be dimmed. Most cfl lamps (bulbs) are this kind. However, special cfl bulbs are now being marketed, at a higher price, that can be dimmed by a normal dimmer switch previously used for incandescent bulbs. However, not all dimmer switches work with these newer dimmable cfl lamps.
No one created the CFL instead there was a group of people who came up with the idea
There are not currently any car replacement lamp that use CFL bulbs. I wouldn't be surprised to see them or something similar in the near future.
compare to different lamps mv lamp,hpsv lamps & cfl lamp these are how mush energy comsumed for 225w lamp
The abbreviations are CFL - Compact Fluorescent Lamp, MHL - Metal Halide Lamp, HPMV - High Pressure Mercury Vapor, and one more is HPS - High Pressure Sodium lamp
I guess yes, because LED is just tinny light emmiting diode which consumes very less energy as compare to CFLs or Incandescent lamp and hence it leads to save our electric bills as well. CFL also a new concept of lightning but LEDs are the latest ones & performs much better as compare to Incandescent lamp.
A CFL is a Compact Florescent Lamp. Compact florescent lamps are more complex than a traditional lightbulb, and the circuits inside the CFL create electrical "noise" in that can affect other devices. The choke is a coil or inductor that is designed to filter out the noise to reduce it's interference with other devices.
In a stage show it needs various types of CFL and Sylvania offers comprehensive range of high-efficiency fluorescent lamps in various lengths, diameters, wattages, colours as well as lamps for a wide range of specialist applications. Only watts doesn't matter in stage show.
