Do incandescent and fluorescent bulbs produce the same amount of heat?
No, incandescent bulbs produce more heat than fluorescent bulbs. Incandescent bulbs generate light by heating a filament, which also emits heat. Fluorescent bulbs produce less heat because they use electricity to excite gas inside the bulb, which then emits light.
How many fluorescent bulbs would you need to replace all the incandescent bulbs currently in use?
not all incandescent lamps (bulbs) can be replaced by fluorescent lamps because there are some applications where there is no acceptable or equivalent fluorescent lamp. In some cases, other technologies may be useful--HID or LED lamps. There are some applications where the incandescent source, especially the tungsten-halogen type, still rules.
