Everyone has agreed for a long time that the "old" incandescent light bulb needed to be a little more efficient. Unfortunately, it was not easy because of some of the limitations. We now have these Compact Fluorescents with longer life and energy savings.
Please consider these important facts:
| INCANDESCENT (light bulb) | COMPACT FLUORESCENT | WATTS | LIGHT BULB EQUALS |
| Rated life of 750 hours | Rated life of 10,000 hours | 5-13 | 25-40 A19 light bulb |
| Subject to vibrations | Not affected by vibrations | 16 | 60 A19 light bulb |
| Heat causes premature failure (burnout) | Heat is not a problem ( lower wattages means less heat) | 20 | 75 A19 light bulb |
| Short lamp life results in higher maintenance cost. Bulb must be replaced more often. | Maintenance is reduced and inventory requirements are reduced as well | 23 | 100 A19 0r A23 light bulb |
| Reduced wattages mean reduced light levels | Reduced wattages mean same or better light levels | 26 | 125 A23 or PS25 light bulb |
