Fluorescent Desk Lamps

Over all these years, a fluorescent desk lamp has become more sleek and compact and many of them contain an 18 watt bulb.

Though it is compact in size, these fluorescent lamps are able to emit around 6000 hours of fluorescent light before it demands to be replaced.

The fluorescent light technology was invented around a century ago but since then, scientists are continuously refining it all through. Around two decades ago, the CFL bulbs came onto the scene and are extremely efficient and compact when compared to earlier fluorescent lights. Each of the CFL bulbs contains the power to light at least two incandescent bulbs and it can burn for 10 times more hours than former ones.

If you have decided to purchase a fluorescent desk lamp, then you are not just getting a better lamp for your desk, but you are also helping the environment. Incandescent bulbs emitted too much heat and as compared to those, CFLs produce less heat, and need to be replaced less frequently.
