Description
The Flashpoint 45W 5500K Spiral CFL Fluorescent Light Bulb is the 225w equivalent to the old 'hot lights' of the previous technical generation. Yet, it only consumes 45w of current in a standard light fixture base in a shallow reflector. The short profile makes them work best with Edison 26 to 27mm (E26-E-27) screw bases, commonly found in most lamps. The daylight color balance makes them perfect for replacing standard tungsten bulbs in table lamps for video filming, where a window or outdoor light are blended with the interior lit scenes or daylight LED's are employed. No need to gel windows or go through time-consuming post-production to achieve pleasing hues. Qliqipedia A compact fluorescent lamp (CFL) is super energy-saving light, engineered slim fluorescent tube designed to replace an incandescent light bulb. These types fit into standard Edison base light fixtures designed for incandescent bulbs. The concept uses a gas-filled glass tube which is curved or folded to fit compactly in the space of an incandescent bulb. In this case, the trick is achieved in aspiral configuration, and a compact electronic ballast installed within the base of the lamp. Compared to incandescent lamps giving the same amount of visible light, CFLs use one-fifth to one-third the electric power and have a lifetime eight to fifteen times longer. A CFL has a higher purchase price than an incandescent lamp, but can save over five times its purchase price in electricity costs over the lamp's lifetime. And it's a lot cooler.
