  2. Fluorescent lamp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorescent_lamp

    Fluorescent light fixtures cannot be connected to dimmer switches intended for incandescent lamps. Two effects are responsible for this: the waveform of the voltage emitted by a standard phase-control dimmer interacts badly with many ballasts, and it becomes difficult to sustain an arc in the fluorescent tube at low power levels.

    One of the first diameters of fluorescent lamps, with the 15W T8 and 30W T8 having been introduced in 1938. [3] The European energy-saving krypton T8 lamps were introduced by Thorn EMI during the 1970s. [4] The North American energy-saving argon T8 lamps weren't introduced until the 1980s. [5] T9 T29 1 + 1 ⁄ 8: 28.6 G10q quad-pin; G13 bi-pin

  4. Energy saving lamp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_saving_lamp

    Energy saving lamp. Energy saving lamps are sources of artificial light that employ advanced technology to reduce the amount of electricity used to generate light, relative to traditional filament-burning light bulbs. Examples of energy saving lamps include: Fluorescent lamps; i.e. regular and compact; LED lamp; a Light-emitting electrochemical ...

  5. Trouble light - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trouble_light

    Trouble lights are usually powered by AC wall current, but some are powered by a 12-volt source, such as a car battery. The bulb of the trouble light typically has a heavy filament to withstand dropping, and therefore is also referred to as a drop light. [1] Newer models often use LED arrays as the light source. LEDs are more energy efficient ...

  6. 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.

  7. Emergency light - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emergency_light

    Every model, therefore, requires some sort of a battery or generator system that could provide electricity to the lights during a blackout. The earliest models were incandescent light bulbs which could dimly light an area during a blackout and perhaps provide enough light to solve the power problem or evacuate the building. It was quickly ...

  8. Fluorescent lamps and health - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorescent_lamps_and_health

    Some linear fluorescent lamps contain reduced mercury (as low as 1.7 mg) [22] and are typically termed as "Green" and are recognizable by their green caps/tips. [ 23 ] The U.S. EPA states that using energy-efficient CFLs reduces demand for power, which reduces the amount of coal burned by power plants and hence reduces the amount of mercury ...

  9. LED lamp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LED_lamp

    A 230-volt LED filament lamp, with an E27 base. The filaments are visible as the eight yellow vertical lines. An assortment of LED lamps commercially available in 2010: floodlight fixtures (left), reading light (center), household lamps (center right and bottom), and low-power accent light (right) applications An 80W Chips on board (COB) LED module from an industrial light luminaire, thermally ...
