What are the advantages and disadvantages of using compact fluorescent light bulbs?

One nice thing about light bulbs is that they provide light indoors and when it is dark outside, without having to light a candle or an oil lamp. They are also relatively safe, clean and easy to operate. Disadvantages include the fact that you will need electricity and wires that are properly installed and cannot be easily moved about. It is also difficult to repair a broken light bulb or one that has burned out, and they must be disposed of and replaced.
