What are energy efficient light bulbs made of?
A: There circuitry inside to boost the voltage to 300 500 volts and a triac to conduct the current but the bulbs as opposed to vacuum there is gas inside those coils.
How do they stop combustion occurring in light bulbs?
"They" do that by creating a vacuum inside the bulb (i.e., there's no oxygen in the bulb to burn).
Which gas is in electric bulb?
Modern bulbs are usually filled with a mixture of argon and nitrogen. More rarely, some bulbs are filled with pure argon, krypton or xenon. The earliest bulbs weren't filled with any gas, but had vacuum inside.
Is there air in light bulbs?
No, there is a vacuum or inert gas such as argon or nitrogen inside light bulbs to prevent oxidation and prolong the lifespan of the filament. Air does not play a role in the functioning of a light bulb.

What would happen inside a light bulb if it was filled with air?
It would no longer work. Light bulbs are usually under vacuum and if air gets in the filament blows.
What are examples of a vacuum?
Examples of vacuums include the vacuum inside a sealed jar, the vacuum of outer space, and the vacuum inside a vacuum cleaner.
Why electric bulbs don't have air inside?
Electric bulbs do have the inert gasses inside and not oxygen to avoid explosions.
What is an element that is the gas in the light bulbs?
Argon or dry nitrogen are common fill gasses in high wattage bulbs. But low wattage bulbs are just vacuum with no fill.
Are there many of air molecules inside a vacuum?
No, a vacuum by definition is a space with no air molecules present. Therefore, there are no air molecules inside a vacuum.
In a vacuum there's no what?
A vacuum is an empty space with nothing inside it.
What are the benefits of vacuum tubes and light bulbs?
They enable us to do things at night.
