Are they low voltage? Do they last long, b/c I have seen that some individuals are unhappy with it b/c they stop operating. Have any thoughts?

]]> Comment on The Drawbacks Of Compact Fluorescent Bulbs And Coming Advances In Lighting by Arthur Corbin http://energy2020today.com/blog/2010/04/04/the-drawbacks-of-compact-fluorescent-bulbs-and-coming-advances-in-lighting/comment-page-1/#comment-61 Arthur Corbin Fri, 09 Apr 2010 23:01:14 +0000 http://energy2020today.com/blog/2010/04/04/the-drawbacks-of-compact-fluorescent-bulbs-and-coming-advances-in-lighting/#comment-61 Essay lacks information, facts, and analysis. This essay is your opinion based on limited knowledge. I have 25 years experience with lighting and do not have the time, space, or interest to educate you. I do suggest looking at the Rocky Mountain Institute, and the Ressenseler Polytechnic web site for useful information, links, and recommendations. CFL (compact fluorescent lamps) are available for low and high temperature use. Manufacturers provide this information in their literature and usually not on their retail package. CFLs are temperature sensitive. CFLs work best when allowed to operate longer for 15 minutes. The amount of mercury is small, think of a drop sitting on the head of a pin. LED production and coal fired power plants produce vastly (yes, vastly) more mercury and other toxins than CFLs. CFLs are what is available today when energy savings and long life are desired. CFLs are not good in reflector lamps, LEDs and halogen PAR lamps are today's best choices for residential uses. Look for the phase out of common incandescent bulbs beginning in 2012 and for new fixture designs based on the smaller sizes of the newer light sources. Essay lacks information, facts, and analysis.
