It depends. If you have a compact fluorescent bulb, it is about the same difficulty level as installing an incandescent bulb. If however you are installing a 4 foot long fluorescent tube, it may be considered a bit more difficult because there are 2 pins on each end of the tube that have to line up on each end of the light fixture, thus it would require a bit more effort and coordination. Once you line the end pins up, you push the tube into the slot until it is fully seated, then you give it a quarter turn to lock it in place.
Definitely fluorescent. Incandescent lights are extremely inefficient and spend most of their energy producing heat rather than light. This is why an incandescent lightbulb gets so much hotter than a fluorescent one.
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.
Fluorescent or incandescent.
Yes, the wattage is just the power consumption. A 30 watt Fluorescent will give more or less the same light as a incandescent bulb or 60 watts, which is the limit for your fixture for incandescent bulbs.
A regular incandescent bulb uses a lot more energy than a compact fluorescent to produce the same amount of light. Most energy used by an incandescent bulb is wasted as heat which does not give off visible light. Incandescent bulbs are cheaper to buy, but they have shorter lifetimes than other alternatives.
The moon is neither fluorescent nor incandescent. It merely reflects sunlight.
Fluorescent lights use gas and electricity to produce light, while incandescent lights use a filament that heats up to produce light. Fluorescent lights are more energy-efficient and last longer than incandescent lights.
The costs of manufacturing costs of fluorescent and incandescent light bulbs are about the same aside from the slight different materials.
Fluorescent lights use gas and phosphor coating to produce light, while incandescent lights use a filament that heats up to produce light. Fluorescent lights are more energy-efficient and last longer than incandescent lights, but incandescent lights have a warmer color temperature.
No, much hotter.

Incandescent lighting uses a filament that heats up to produce light, while fluorescent lighting uses gas and phosphors to create light. Incandescent lights are less energy efficient and have a shorter lifespan compared to fluorescent lights.
Fluorescent light bulbs are typically more energy-efficient and produce more light for the same amount of power compared to incandescent bulbs. So, a fluorescent light bulb may appear brighter than an incandescent bulb with the same power rating.
Definitely fluorescent. Incandescent lights are extremely inefficient and spend most of their energy producing heat rather than light. This is why an incandescent lightbulb gets so much hotter than a fluorescent one.
An incandescent light uses electric current passing through a wire with a high resistance to current flow. That makes the wire very hot and it glows, producing the light. A fluorescent light uses electricity to charge a gas in a tube. The charged gas glows, producing the light. For the same amount of light, more electricity is needed in an incandescent light than in a fluorescent light, but developing and building fluorescent lights required more advanced technology than did incandescent lights.
Fluorescent light bulbs use less electricity for the amount of light produced.
Fluorescent lighting uses gas and phosphor coating to produce light, while incandescent lighting uses a filament that heats up to produce light. Fluorescent lights are more energy-efficient and last longer than incandescent lights, but incandescent lights have a warmer color temperature.
