To calculate the annual cost of running a 40-watt 4ft fluorescent tube, you need to know the cost of electricity per kilowatt-hour in your area. Usually, a 40-watt fluorescent tube is on for about 8 hours per day, so you would multiply the wattage (40) by the hours/day (8) to get watt-hours per day. Convert that to kilowatt-hours and then multiply by the number of days the light is on per year. Finally, multiply that by the cost per kilowatt-hour to get the annual cost.
A 33 watt fluorescent tube consumes 33 watt-hours of electricity per hour. It means it uses 0.033 kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity in one hour.
Yes, you can use a 36-watt electronic starter with a 40-watt fluorescent tube, as electronic starters are designed to work with a range of wattages. However, the performance may vary, and the tube might not operate optimally. It's always best to check the manufacturer's specifications to ensure compatibility and avoid potential issues.
fluorescents are about 5x as efficientso a 12W will give about as much light
A 26-watt compact fluorescent lamp typically produces around 1,700 lumens.
Yes, you can use a 32 watt T12 fluorescent lamp in a fixture that previously housed a 40 watt T12 fluorescent lamp. However, the light output will be slightly lower. It's advisable to check the fixture's compatibility with the lower wattage lamp to ensure proper performance.
A 33 watt fluorescent tube consumes 33 watt-hours of electricity per hour. It means it uses 0.033 kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity in one hour.
A 15-watt fluorescent should produce about as much light as a 75-watt incandescent.

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.
A 26-watt compact fluorescent lamp typically produces around 1,700 lumens.
The F40T12 DX fluorescent light bulb is a 40-watt, 48-inch long tube with a diameter of 1.5 inches. It has a color temperature of 6500 Kelvin, providing a cool white light.
Yes, you can use a 32 watt T12 fluorescent lamp in a fixture that previously housed a 40 watt T12 fluorescent lamp. However, the light output will be slightly lower. It's advisable to check the fixture's compatibility with the lower wattage lamp to ensure proper performance.
It would depend on the wattage of the fluorescent tubes. As a rough estimate, you would need about 6-8 standard 40-watt fluorescent tubes to approximate the light output of a 1000-watt metal halide bulb.
A 32 watt fluorescent bulb typically produces around 2400-2900 lumens of light output. The exact lumen output can vary depending on the specific type and brand of the fluorescent bulb.
Compared with an incandescent bulb, a fluorescent tube uses about 80% less electrical power for the same amount of brightness. A 150W incandescent can be replaced by a 30W tube. If it's on for 200 hours a month the saving is 200 x 120 watt-hours or 24 kilowatt-hours, saving about £3.60.
A 13-15 watt compact fluorescent bulb (CFL) or a 9-11 watt LED bulb is roughly equivalent to a 60 watt incandescent bulb in terms of light output.
