Compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs), sometimes referred to as energy-saving lamps, are lighting fixtures made to use less energy while producing a same amount of light as conventional incandescent bulbs.
Compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs) use a fluorescent tube that is filled with argon and a small amount of mercury vapor.
When the tube is electrified, it produces ultraviolet light. Visible light is produced by the UV radiation stimulating the tube’s phosphor coating.
Energy-saving lamps have a longer lifespan, can save up to 75% of energy, and generate less heat than incandescent bulbs.
They are appropriate for a variety of fixtures because they are available in a range of sizes and forms, such as spiral and globe patterns.
In residential, commercial, and industrial settings, energy-saving lamps are commonly utilized, which helps with energy conservation efforts and lowers electricity costs.
Despite their advantages, CFLs must be disposed of properly because they contain mercury, and advances in LED technology have steadily eclipsed CFLs in the lighting market.
