The main advantage of energy-saving lamps is significant energy savings and their high luminous efficiency, which is significantly higher than those of traditional incandescent lamps. However, the list of their advantages does not end there.

Step 1
Long service life
Energy saving bulbs last much longer than traditional incandescent bulbs, as incandescent bulbs can quickly fail when the tungsten filament burns out. Energy-saving lamps have a completely different principle of operation, allowing them to operate for a much longer time (from 5000 to 12000 hours). In addition, this advantage allows the use of energy-saving lamps in hard-to-reach places where their frequent replacement presents certain difficulties (for example, in chandeliers with a complex design, on high ceilings).
Step 2
Saving energy
Marketing research of the energy-saving lamp market has shown that most people in Russia purchase these lamps due to their reduced energy consumption: the efficiency of an energy-saving lamp is high, and the luminous efficiency is 5 times higher than that of traditional incandescent lamps. For example, a 20 W energy-saving lamp generates a luminous flux equal to that of a 100 W incandescent lamp. This advantageous ratio allows you to save up to 80% of energy without any loss in room illumination.
Step 3
Low heat dissipation
The mechanism of operation of energy-saving lamps is such that all consumed electricity is converted into a powerful luminous flux with the least heat release. Nowadays, even chandeliers and lamps have appeared, designed exclusively for the use of energy-saving lamps in them. The fact is that traditional incandescent lamps can melt the plastic part of the lamp holder, damage their wiring, or melt the body of the entire lamp. All this can lead to a fire.
Step 4
High level of light output
High luminous efficiency is another major advantage of energy saving lamps. A conventional incandescent lamp is capable of scattering the light flux emanating directly from the tungsten filament, while an energy-saving lamp burns entirely. This allows it to evenly diffuse light throughout the room or room. This makes the light output from energy-saving lamps softer and less irritating to the eyes. It is worth noting that these lamps (unlike traditional ones) are capable of shining with different light: from yellow to cold or soft white. This is due to a certain shade of the phosphor that covers the lamp body. It all depends on individual preferences.
