Daylight Fluorescent lamps have bluish-white illuminance, whereas coolwhite fluorescent lamps have yellowish-white illuminance.
Fluorescent lamps or light bulbs contain various amounts of mercury in them. When they are thrown away they are eventually broken and the mercury can leak out. That makes them hazardous to people, animals, and the environment.
Fluorescent lights help the environment by conserving energy and being more efficient.Traditional bulbs produce about 15 lumens per watt, while fluorescent bulbs produce between 50 to 100 lumens per watt. This makes fluorescents bulbs five or six times more efficient than traditional bulbs.Also, the concepts behind the two bulbs are different. Traditional, or incandescent bulbs create heat in order to create light, which wastes a lot of energy. Fluorescent bulbs use a gas containing argon and mercury vapor that creates ultraviolet photons.This helps the environment by not wasting resources.Alternative AnswerFluorescent lamps might lower your electricity bill, but they use more energy and resources to manufacture, compared with incandescent lamps. They also contain mercury and other toxins. So fluorescent lamps probably do more damage to the environment than incandescent lamps. So, if you want to save on your energy bills, use fluorescent lamps; if you want to protect the environment, then use incandescent lamps.
352 There are six different types of light bulbs invented as of December 27, 2012. They include the incandescent light bulb, the halogen light bulb, the fluorescent light bulb, the high-density discharge lamps, LEDs, and sodium lamps.
The fluorescent light bulb more efficiently converts electricity to light resulting in less heat produced. But in winter, heat being produced is not exactly a bad thing. Besides, fluorescent light bulbs are more expensive and have heavy metals in them, making them more toxic.
Daylight Fluorescent lamps have bluish-white illuminance, whereas coolwhite fluorescent lamps have yellowish-white illuminance.

Yes, these lamps can be interchanged.
One can purchase cheap dimmable compact fluorescent lamps from various retailers. The website lamps-on-line offers such lamps and ebay is always a good place to find them.
I asked about the calculation for fluorescent lamps amperes using volt ampere, that means what is the power factor used ( according to international standard) for fluorescent lamps ?
yes
yes
"Compact fluorescent lamps" (or, more commonly CFLs) sold direct to consumers for installation in a standard screw-in socket have an integral ballast built into the base. The ballast converts and controls the line voltage from the socket to properly drive the fluorescent lamp. Ballasts are generally fairly complex circuitry. All fluorescent lamps require a ballast. However, most lamps used commercially ("ordinary fluorescent lamps") do not have the ballasts built into them; rather, the ballasts are hidden somewhere in the fixture.
They are used all the time in workshops
in thermometers, barometers, fluorescent lamps and batteries.
it isnt * * * * * It is used in fluorescent lamps.
Incandescent and halogen light bulbs use more energy than compact fluorescent lights and LED lights. Fluorescent lamps with magnetic ballasts use more energy than fluorescent lamps with electronic ballasts.
