About Replacing Tubular Fluorescent Light Bulbs

About Light Appearance

About Brightness

Brightness is measured in lumens; the higher the lumens, the brighter the bulb. Color rendering index (CRI) is a measurement on a scale of 0-100 of how accurately the light from a bulb represents an object's true colors; the higher the number, the more natural the colors appear. Any CRI value over 80 will show colors true to life. Bulbs with a warm light appearance have yellow tones. Bulbs with a neutral light appearance are often used in workspaces. Bulbs with a cool or daylight appearance have white/blue tones and are good for inspecting. A bulb’s estimated yearly cost is based on 3 hours of usage per day at $0.11 per kWh.

Bulbs cannot be sold to the listed areas because they do not meet local regulatory limits on mercury and/or local energy efficiency requirements.

Energy efficient and long lasting, these bulbs are often used in task lights. They’re comparable to PL, Dulux, and Biax bulbs. It takes these bulbs several seconds to reach full brightness. Brightness is measured in lumens; the higher the lumens, the brighter the bulb. Bulbs with a warm light appearance have yellow tones. Bulbs with a neutral light appearance are often used in workspaces. Bulbs with a cool light appearance have white/blue tones and are good for inspecting. A bulb’s estimated yearly cost is based on 3 hours of usage per day at $0.11 per kWh. These bulbs cannot be sold to the listed areas because they do not meet local efficiency standards and exceed local regulatory limits on mercury (for disposal information, visit www.epa.gov/cfl).

LED bulbs last longer and are more efficient than CFL bulbs. They generate little heat, withstand vibration, and are shatterproof. LED bulbs are socket ready. They plug directly into a fixture and work with most electronic ballasts, but not all. Their bases are designed to fit multiple sockets.

CFL (compact fluorescent) bulbs are energy efficient, but take several seconds to reach full brightness. They cannot be sold to the listed areas because they do not meet local efficiency standards and exceed local regulatory limits on mercury (for disposal information, visit www.epa.gov/cfl).
