Success Stories: Comact Fluorescent Lamp

Success Stories: Comact Fluorescent Lamp: "Incandescent lighting has been the most common home lighting choice for years. Unfortunately, incandescent lamps are very inefficient. They waste a lot of energy and typically last only about 1,000 hours. By contrast, fixtures developed by Berkeley Lab use compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs) that can last for 10,000 hours using 20 to 25% of the power."
