Compact fluorescent bulbs are much more efficient at producing
light than are ordinary incandescent bulbs. They initially cost
much more, but last far longer and use much less electricity.
According to one study of these bulbs, a compact bulb that produces
as much light as a 100 W incandescent bulb uses only 23.0 W of
power. The compact bulb lasts 1.00×104 hours, on the
average, and costs $12.00, whereas the incandescent bulb costs only
76.0 ¢, but lasts just 750...
