  2. Compact fluorescent lamp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compact_fluorescent_lamp

    A compact fluorescent lamp (CFL), also called compact fluorescent light, energy-saving light and compact fluorescent tube, is a fluorescent lamp designed to replace an incandescent light bulb; some types fit into light fixtures designed for incandescent bulbs. The lamps use a tube that is curved or folded to fit into the space of an ...

  3. Phase-out of incandescent light bulbs - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase-out_of_incandescent...

    Some CFLs are not compatible with existing dimming circuits such as those using TRIACs, although CFLs that support dimming are available. [167] Halogen bulbs provide a somewhat more efficient dimmable alternative to common incandescent bulbs, [ 168 ] although they too have been or will be phased out in many places.

  4. GU24 lamp fitting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GU24_lamp_fitting

    A GU24 lamp fitting is a bi-pin connector for compact fluorescent lamps (CFL) or LED lamps that uses a bayonet mount –like twist-lock bi-pin connector instead of the Edison screw fitting used on many CFLs, LED lamps and incandescent light bulbs. The design was initiated by the U.S. EPA and the Lighting Research Center in 2004, in order to ...

  5. Fluorescent lamp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorescent_lamp

    A fluorescent lamp, or fluorescent tube, is a low-pressure mercury-vapor gas-discharge lamp that uses fluorescence to produce visible light. An electric current in the gas excites mercury vapor, which produces short-wave ultraviolet light that then causes a phosphor coating on the inside of the lamp to glow.

  6. Fluorescent-lamp formats - Wikipedia

    G5 bi-pin. 2GX13 quad-pin. G10q quad-pin. Original 4–13 W miniature fluorescent range from 1950s or earlier. [1] Two newer ranges, high-efficiency (HE) 14–35 W, and high-output (HO) 24–80 W, introduced in the 1990s. [2] Panasonic's range of FHL fluorescent tubes in 18W, 27W, and 36W varieties for the Japanese market.

  7. Cold cathode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cold_cathode

    A cold cathode[1] is a cathode that is not electrically heated by a filament. [note 1] A cathode may be considered "cold" if it emits more electrons than can be supplied by thermionic emission alone. It is used in gas-discharge lamps, such as neon lamps, discharge tubes, and some types of vacuum tube. The other type of cathode is a hot cathode ...
