What else can I help you with?
Will a condensed fluorescent bulb work as a grow light for garden?
Only if you buy a "full spectrum" of "grow light" type of compact bulb.
What is a compact fluorescent lamp and how does it work?
The link shown below to Wikipedia explains pretty well how a compact fluorescent lamp works.
How does a compact fluorescent light bulb work?
A fluorescent light bulb contains a gas which produces UV light when it comes in contact with electricity. Contrary to a normal light bulb this does not create any heat and is far more energy efficient.
Fluorescent HID lights best accompany what soil type?
Fluorescent HID lights work well with all types of soil, instead try matching the type of fluorescent light with the type of plant you're growing. Standard fluorescent give of duller light and work better with starting a plant that will eventually go outside. Compact fluorescent, on the other hand, give of much more light and work best with growing larger plants indoors.
What is a compact fluorescent PI lamp?
PL mean Plug in - Light Bulb, the most comment application is CFL (Compact Fluorescent Lamp) which require assistance components to make it work or light up, different to incandescent light bulb, it can light up by just itself direct connect to our home electricity ac 100v to ac 240v.
What effects do compact fluorescent bulbs have on computers?
Compact fluorescent bulbs can introduce electrical noise that may interfere with the operation of computers, causing flickering screens or device malfunctions. Additionally, some compact fluorescent bulbs emit ultraviolet (UV) radiation that may degrade plastics and other components in a computer over time.
If the ballast on a fluorescent light blows will the lamp still work?
Typically, if the ballast on a fluorescent light blows, the lamp will not work. The ballast regulates the electrical current to the lamp, so if it is not functioning properly, the lamp will not receive the correct power to light up.
Do energy saver light bulbs contain mercury?
Yes, all fluorescent lights, including the compact fluorescents contain some amount of mercury. It is a necessary component to make the bulb work and is the reason fluorescent bulbs should not be broken for disposal, but should be sent through a disposal path that bring them to a responsible recycling and disposal organization. Compact fluorescent bulbs, also called energy saver light bulbs, have more mercury than the conventional long fluorescent bulbs, which have been developed in recent years to use less mercury than used to be the case.
Full form of PL Lamp?
PL is mean Plug in - Light Bulb, the most comment application is CFL (Compact Fluorescent Lamp) which require assistance components to make it work or light it up, different to incandescent light bulb, it can light up by just itself direct connect to our home electricity ac 100v to ac 240v.
Why compact fluorescent bulb doesn't work well in cold weather?
Fluorescent lamps contain a small amount of mercury that must be vaporized to allow current to flow through the lamp and cause it to light up. The colder the lamp, the more mercury is in liquid form and not vapor form, causing a lower light output in the lamp.
Is fluorescent light a plasma?
No, fluorescent light is not a plasma. Fluorescent lights work by using electricity to excite mercury vapor and produce ultraviolet light, which then interacts with a phosphor coating to create visible light. Plasma is a state of matter where atoms are stripped of their electrons, leading to a highly energized gas that can emit light.
How does 4 tube fluorescent work?
A 4-tube fluorescent light contains four fluorescent tubes connected to a ballast that regulates the electrical current flowing through the tubes. When the light switch is turned on, the ballast sends high voltage to the tubes to ionize the gas inside. This ionization process produces ultraviolet light, which then interacts with the phosphor coating inside each tube to produce visible light.
