LEDs are solid-state lights that use light-emitting diodes as the source of light. They are semiconductors that glow when electricity is applied to it.
The efficancy of LED package & products depends on many factors, which range from electrical effciency to internal quantum efficiency to spectral efficiency.

Yes a black lamp tube will work in a fluorescent fixture. Guess you don't remember the early 70's.
Fluorescent tubes last longer and supply more light per watt of energy consumed than an incandescent bulb.
An Energy Star qualified compact fluorescent light bulb can save you around $30 over it's lifetime, paying for its self in about 6 months.

To accurately measure the brightness and efficiency of fluorescent bulbs, one can use a device called a light meter to measure the amount of light emitted by the bulb in lumens. The efficiency of the bulb can be calculated by dividing the number of lumens produced by the amount of power consumed in watts. This will give you a measure of how effectively the bulb is converting electricity into light.
EEdmund Germer (90% sure) made the first fluorescent light bulb
Mercury is used in fluorescent bulbs as it helps produce ultraviolet light when electricity passes through the bulb. This UV light excites phosphor coating inside the bulb, which then emits visible light. While the amount of mercury used in fluorescent bulbs is small, it is essential for their function and energy efficiency.
An incandescent bulb is less energy efficient than a fluorescent bulb because it produces more heat than light, wasting energy. Fluorescent bulbs are more energy efficient as they produce less heat and more light. Additionally, fluorescent bulbs have a longer lifespan than incandescent bulbs, lasting up to 10 times longer.
Yes, an incandescent light bulb produces more heat than a fluorescent bulb. Incandescent bulbs convert a significant portion of the energy they consume into heat, typically around 90%, while only about 10% is used for light production. In contrast, fluorescent bulbs are more energy-efficient, converting a larger portion of their energy into visible light and generating less heat as a result. This efficiency makes fluorescent bulbs cooler to the touch compared to incandescent bulbs.
The energy saving light-bulbs are usually fluorescent. Neon is a type of fluorescent light bulb.

fluorescent light bulbs are usually from 9$-15$.
In an old-fashioned light bulb, the part that emits light is a resistance. When current flows through it, it heats up so much that it glows - it emits light.Due to their lousy efficiency, these light bulbs should be discarded, in favor of fluorescent light bulbs or LED light bulbs.In an old-fashioned light bulb, the part that emits light is a resistance.

It uses modern technology to give better efficiency. A filament bulb has an incandescent (hot) piece of tungsten wire, which produces light but also heat. A fluorescent bulb uses a different process to produce more light and less heat.
The flourescent light bulb was invented in 1827.
The long thin light bulb is called a fluorescent tube or a fluorescent light bulb. It is commonly used in commercial buildings, offices, and schools for general lighting purposes.
