You do not found C.F.L. bulb in nature as such. So it is an artificial or man made source of light. It consumes very less energy. As it does not gives out heat.

The fulform of CFL bulbs is compact fluorecent light
A CFL light is a Compact Fluorescent Light.
Depends on the light. Typically about 1/8th of the wattage used by an equivalent standard bulb.
About 80%. An incandescent bulb produces 12 lumens per watt, (15 for halogen) while a CFL produces about 60 lumens per watt.
Over all, CFL light bulbs are good for the environment and they can save $. 1 CFL light bulb has 10 times the life span of a regular light bulb. 1 CFL light bulb could save enough energy to take a car from NY to San Francisco. 1 CFL light bulb uses between 50% and 80% less energy than a regular light bulb.
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.
They are called CFL light bulbs. CFL stands for Compact Fluorescent Light .

Edward Hammer in 1976.
This is a bit less light than a 40W incandescent bulb (much less than a 9-watt CFL bulb, but twice as much as a 5-watt CFL mini-bulb).
What does "PAR" mean when associated with light bulbs? Is it the CFL watt equivalent of an incandescant bulb? Thanx, Bob Cushman
Without the mercury in a CFL you wouldn't have light. The ballast in a CFL supplies initial current which excites the mercury which releases photons, or light. The mercury does not produce visible light, this happens only once the light passes through the phosphor coating on the inside of the bulb.
