What is the difference between compact fluorescent bulbs and incandescent (standard) light bulbs?
A compact fluorescent bulb lasts up to 10 times longer and uses 75% less energy than an incandescent bulb, while giving off the same amount and quality of light. It does this by using fluorescent technology in a completely new way: by folding up the tubes, improving the light quality, starting flicker-free and attaching the whole works onto a regular screw-base so that fluorescent bulbs can fit where your standard bulbs are now.
