Does energy efficient light bulbs produce less amount of heat than non-energy efficient light bulbs?
Yes, non energy efficient bulbs like the incandescents waste around 90% of there energy in the form of heat. LEDs and CFLs don't even come close.
Which state helps produce light in fluorescent light bulbs?
New York
Fluorescent light bulbs are considered more efficient because they they?
Lose less energy as heat.
Does a 60-watt electric light bulb create heat energy?
Yes. Part of the energy is converted to light, part to heat. The percentage depends on the type of light bulb. Fluorescent and LED light bulbs are more efficient than incandescent light bulbs. A 60-watt incandescent bulb will be uncomfortable to remove from the socket with your bare hands after turning it off. However, a 100-watt bulb will burn you if you remove it with your bare hands after turning it off.
Do fluorescent lights produce heat?
Yes. They're cool compared to incandescent bulbs of the same light output, but they do produce some heat.
Are light bulbs really efficient?
Normal incandescent bulbs produce a lot of heat as well as light, so are not so efficient as low energy bulbs which can give the same light but consume much less electricity
Which cicuits light the bulb better-Bulbs light better in which kind of circuits?
If you are comparing parallel vs series circuits, light bulbs produce more light in parallel circuits.
What makes LED light fixtures energy efficient?
LED light fixtures are made out of clusters of very small, super energy efficient bulbs. Because many of those bulbs are used, LED lights can be built to mimic the effects of regular incandescent bulbs. A huge part of what makes LED bulbs so energy efficient is that they do not produce heat as incandescent light bulbs do.
Does energy efficient light bulbs produce less amount of heat than non-energy efficient light bulbs?
Yes, non energy efficient bulbs like the incandescents waste around 90% of there energy in the form of heat. LEDs and CFLs don't even come close.
How many times do you need to replace energy efficient fluorescent light bulbs?
comparing to the traditional light bulbs energy efficient fluorescent light bulbs uses 25% to 75% energy and saves money also and it lasts up to 3 to 25 times long so there is no need to replace energy efficient fluorescent light bulbs often.
Do all light bulbs produce polarized light?
No. Light bulbs produce non-polarized light.
Does a light dimmer work with the new energy efficient light bulbs?
If you are looking to use the new energy efficient light bulbs on a light dimmer you will need to buy specially made dimmable CFLs. Not all energy efficient light bulbs are compatible with dimmers so be sure to check the packaging for information.
Is it the chemical reactions the reason light bulbs are hot to the touch?
Yes, but its more of the result of the reaction, which is heat and light. More efficient is florescent which produce more light than heat.
Why do people say that ordinary light bulbs aren't energy saving?
No light bulbs actually save energy, they use it to produce light. However energy efficient bulbs use less energy than the ordinary incandescent type. To my mind describing them as energy saving is wrong, they should be described as "lower energy" bulbs.
Why are cfls efficient than conventional electric bulb?
Conventional incandescent bulbs are extremely inefficient because they use a piece of wire heated to white heat to produce the light. That means that they also produce a lot of heat, which is wasted energy. CFL bulbs produce light more directly and they produce about one fifth of the amount of heat energy.
What advantages do LEDS have over light bulbs?
LEDs are definitely better than the ordinary light bulbs because they're more energy efficient, and you'll be able to get a lot of savings since you don't need to change your bulbs every now and then.
How efficient are commercial light bulbs compared to industrial light bulbs?
Industrial light bulbs typically have larger wattage than commercial light bulbs. This is because commercial light bulbs are more commonly used in public as opposed to private homes.
