How much electricity can be saved by using CFL?

we should use CFL as they do not produce heat energy thus saving electricity. After using CFL for an hour we can remove it bare hand as per proving that CFL's do not produce large amount of heat energy. Thus saving electricity and reduces bill..!

by not using pure CFLs. actually CFL's are cost efficient and can save you money of electricity.

When you compare a CFL (Compact Fluorescent Lamp) bulb to an LED bulb, the CFL bulb has a shorter lifespan. The CFL bulb also uses more electricity for the same brightness Also a CFL lasts longer and uses less electricity (for the same brightness) than an incandescent bulb.

As you said all of us had a long experience with Incendescent lamp and CFLs, but know as the consumption of electricity has increased as compare to earlier times, so its our duty to save electricity. By using CFL & LED lights we can save a lot of electricity as compare to incandescent lamp. Because these light actually consumes less energy then incandescent or conventional lamps.

how much units cosumed by 15 watts cfl ina day

There are lots of companies who are also coming up with their appliances with energy star rated which are helpful in saving energy.

they are used because they save more electricity than the normal ones

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.

It depends on the type of bulb. Original incandescent bulbs use electricity to heat a wire to make it glow. Fluorescent and CFL bulbs use electricity to ionize a gas to make it glow. LED bulbs make rare materials glow by using current to directly excite the electrons.

In current practice we can not store electricity abundantly for long time (one can store small amount in charging batteries). Once electricity is produced in power station it flow from higher concentration (power station) to lower concentration (end user), if power produced more than the consumption of the end user then, there is the question of saving, but as it is not possible to store finally it is going to discharge. But fortunately in our…

A 240 v 14 w cfl bulb uses about 0.14 amps.

Probably, as the CFL consumption is 26 watts. Why not try a 60 watt CFL first, that would be much lower consumption.

It depends on the bulb's wattage (its actual wattage, not the incandescent equivalent) and the cost of electricity where you're using the bulb. For example, suppose you have a CFL that draws 14 watts and electricity in your area costs 12 cents per kilowatt-hour. Using very rough approximations, in one hour your bulb would use about 1/70 of a kWh (1000/14 = 71.3), so the bulb would cost about 1/6 of a cent (12/71) to…

Salaries in the Canadian Football League are much lower than those in the National Football League. CFL players make an average salary of $80,000 per year.

The CFL is the Canadian Football League. The CFL is Canada's professional football league.
