Not all lamps need to be plugged in to work. Some lamps operate on batteries, allowing for portable use without a direct power source. Additionally, there are solar-powered lamps that harness sunlight for energy. However, traditional electric lamps typically require an outlet to function.

Do snakes need heat lamps at all times?

They do not necessarily need heat LAMPS at all times but they usually require some source of heat. Captive snakes may have a heating lamp or a heating pad or in hotter parts of the world may not require heating. In the wild they do not need heating lamps. They use the sun and may go under ground when it is too cold.

Is electricity wasted by simply leaving small appliances and table lamps plugged in if they do not have a pilot light or standby mode?

In short yes but it depends, mostly it's those appliances that use electricity in standby mode. The easiest way to tell is if it produces heat even when off. Run your hand over the top and feel for heat. TV's, computers, VCR's, DVD's anything with a timer or a clock and chargers for cellphones etc. Other things like lamps dont use electricity when plugged in. They cant because they use a simple circuit, it is either on or off.


When will be the Mercury lamps will be stopped in market?

If you are referring to fluorescent and CFL lamps, it can never be totally eliminated. These are mercury vapor arc lamps using a phosphor to turn the UV to visible light. They have reduced the mercury dramatically, but it can't be totally eliminated. If all fluorescent and CFL lamps were banned and lighting was all converted to LED then use of mercury could be stopped. However most LED lamps cost at least ten times what CFL lamps cost.
