If a light bulb is handled roughly before it was installed, the filament holder could have been weakened. Another reason that bulbs burn out before their time is that they are being submitted to a higher voltage than the bulb rated for.
The bulb uses 7.5 watt-hours each hour, or 90 watt-hours if left on for 12 hours. 1 unit of electricity would be used in 11 days at 12 hours per day.
To calculate the energy usage of the light bulb, we first convert the power in watts to kilowatts (60.0 W = 0.06 kW). Then, we multiply the power by the time (0.06 kW * 60 days) to get the total energy consumed in kilowatt-hours. Therefore, the light bulb would use 3.6 kWh of electrical energy if left on steadily for 60 days.

1 light year is approximately equal to 5.88 trillion miles. So, 9,240 light years would be about 54.3 quadrillion miles. If we convert that to days (assuming a speed of light travel), it would take light around 1.52 million days to cover this distance.
Depending on the quality of their design - and the quality of the components used in their manufacture - compact fluorescent light bulbs have rated lifetimes between 4,000 and 12,000 hours of "actual in-use time" whilst they are switched on. These ratings are for use under ideal cooling conditions and the lifetimes can be greatly reduced if their miniature ballast circuits overheat,such as when the bulbs are used in fully enclosed and/or recessed lighting fixtures.

By bulb, it is assumed a light bulb is intended rather than a flower bulb or any other kind of bulb. Light bulbs burn out because they are engineered to do so. There would be less profit to the bulb manufacturer if he made bulbs to last longer, which he could if he wanted to. In the early days of bulb manufacture, a bulb was made which still continues to burn over 110 years later. See the link below for more information on the 110 year bulb.

A flourescent light bulb lasts between 6000 to 18000 hours.
He invented the incandescent light bulb and it took him 12 years.

You cannot leave it becuase the bulb will burn out and then probably do some damage to your house. You can if you close the lights after a few hours then turn it on again. Good luck!
Edison's best light bulb stayed lit for around 40 hours. This experiment took place in 1879.
The duration that a fruit can power a light bulb will vary depending on the type of fruit and the size of the bulb. Generally, fruits can power a simple LED light for a few hours to a few days.
In those days they used oil lanterns i think......
the bulbs store a lot of energy inside itself before passing the filament and when they unscrewed it, it would stay on for quite a while
