"Still, with legislation in many countries rendering incandescents unmarketable within the next few years, the compact fluorescent is currently poised as the only mass-market alternative - though other technologies, including LEDs, are on the horizon." --Tom Zeller Jr. (March 27, 2009) See more at New York Times "Electric lighting currently accounts for 19% of the world's electricity use, pumping as much greenhouse-gas pollution into the atmosphere every year as half the world's cars." - -By Jeremy Caplan (August 3, 2009) See more at Time Magazine Orion recommends replacing all incandescent bulbs with compact fluorescents (CFL). As you prepare specs on new and replacement projects, know that fluorescents are available in a range of shapes and styles. The savings is significant. In bulb life alone, a 60-watt incandescent lasts about 1,000 hours. A 15-watt CFL, which is of equal brightness, will last approximately 10,000 hours. 412 Long Plain Road | Leverett, MA 01054 | 413. 548. 7100 Rob Kaufman robert@orion-light.com |
