Do CF light bulbs produce as much heat as incandescent bulbs?

No, compact fluorescent bulbs run much cooler that an incandescent bulb. A CF bulb can be unscrewed when the lamp is on whereas an incandescent will give you a bad burn if this is tried.


Why do you use compact fluorescent lamps instead of incandescent bulbs?

A compact fluorescent lamp or CFL has the advantage of consuming less power.It works in the same way as a fluorescent tube light however it is made in a much more compact shape. This means CFLs can be used to replace ordinary light bulbs which have incandescent filaments.If you replace your ordinary light bulbs with CFLs they will use only 20% (one fifth) of the energy to give you the same amount of light output.More informationEnergy-saving lamps, such as normal and compact fluorescents, save a lot of money compared to normal lamps which have an incandescent filament because of the fact that fluorescents don't use a high-temperature filament that produces more heat energy than light energy.Mainly because they run "cool", a fluorescent lamp uses only about one fifth - 1/5 - of the electrical energy used by a lamp that has a hot, incandescent filament.Put another way, you can use five fluorescent lamps, each giving out the same amount of light as one incandescent, for only the same total electricity running costs.Another good thing about fluorescent lamps is that they have a useful life that is between 5 and 10 times longer than an incandescent lamp, saving even more money over a period of years.

what is a good work/office light?

A good type of office light which will light up your work are but not the space around you would be a desk lamp. Another good idea would be to put a low wattage fluorescent bulb in the lamp as it will provide a better light, at a much lower cost.


What is the average energy energy consumption of an energy saving light bulb?

Fluorescent lighting is much more energy efficient than incandescent lamps, usually by as much as 60 to 80%. That also translates into a corresponding energy savings. I don't recall the exact figure off hand, but the light output from a fluorescent lamp is about three times it's rating. For instance, a 40 watt fluorescent puts out the equivalent light of a 120 watt incandescent bulb.


What are the best alternatives for CFL's?

Compact Fluorescent Lamp lights are a popular bulb alternative used today. Its advantages include a much longer lifespan that an incandescent, and it glows a more relaxing light towards the eyes.
