2. Incandescent light bulb - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incandescent_light_bulb

   Light bulbs using coiled coil filaments are sometimes referred to as 'double-coil bulbs'. For a 60-watt 120-volt lamp, the uncoiled length of the tungsten filament is usually 580 millimetres (22.8 in), [76] and the filament diameter is 0.046 millimetres (0.0018 in). The advantage of the coiled coil is that evaporation of the tungsten filament ...

3. Phase-out of incandescent light bulbs - Wikipedia

   The first phase will be followed by a ban on 60-watt-and-higher incandescent light bulbs starting in October 2014. By October 2016, all incandescent light bulbs will be banned in China. The final phase may be adjusted according to the results of interim assessment from October 2015 to October 2016.

4. Centennial Light - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centennial_Light

   The bulb's longevity has been attributed to the high quality of its manufacture, [4] it being seldom turned off, [5] [6] and its low wattage. [5] [6] Originally a 60-watt bulb, the light has for many years emitted dim light equivalent to a 4-watt bulb, about the strength of a nightlight. [4]

5. L Prize - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L_Prize

   The L-Prize competition was designed to spur development of LED light replacements for 60W incandescent lamps and PAR38 halogen lamps as well as an ultra-efficient "21st Century Lamp". [1] It was established by the United States Department of Energy (DOE) as directed by the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007. The original competition ...

6. A-series light bulb - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A-series_light_bulb

   The most commonly used A-series light bulb type is an A60 bulb [7] (or its inch-based equivalent, the A19 bulb [2] [4]), which is 60 mm (19 ⁄ 8 in or 2 + 3 ⁄ 8 in) wide at its widest point [3] and approximately 110 mm (4 + 3 ⁄ 8 in) in length. [8] Other sizes with a data sheet in IEC 60064 are A50, A55, A67, A68, A71, A75, and A80.

7. Electric light - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_light

   For LEDs, lamp life is defined as the operation time at which 50% of lamps have experienced a 70% decrease in light output. In the 1900s the Phoebus cartel formed in an attempt to reduce the life of electric light bulbs, an example of planned obsolescence. [37] [38] Some types of lamp are also sensitive to switching cycles.
