- Incandescent Light Bulbs
- 15 lumens per watt of input power
This equates to fluorescent light bulbs being anywhere from 4 to 6 times more
efficient than standard incandescent light bulbs.
Another factor of fluorescent bulbs is that they give off very little waste
thermal pollution, if any at all. With standard incandescent light bulbs the
filament must heat up to give off light. This produces waste heat, which can
then cause increased power consumption by your air conditioning unit. No matter
how you slice it, Fluorescent light bulbs will end up saving you a considerable
amount of money.
