| The classic GLS light bulb uses an incandescent tungsten filament. These standard light bulbs are the most popular and familiar to most of us. Excellent colour rendering and light quality. These light bulbs use a fragile filament making them prone to damage or premature failure, they last an average of 1,000 hours.
From one of the leading lighting manufacturers Philips, Osram, GE, Sylvania or Crompton. These lamps are available with a clear or pearl.
Available Lighting Upgrades:
Flourecent lighting saves you the most money (see below) however, if you do not like fluorescent lighting see our new 28W Energy Saving Halogen GLS (replaces 40W) and 42W Energy Saving Halogen GLS (replaces 60W) for a more efficient light bulb that is fully dimmable, with excellent quality light, long life and instant start!
We recommend upgrading standard light bulbs to one of our low energy light bulbs. We have organised these into categories for your convenience:
Why we should consider alternatives...
Poor energy consumption makes all standard/incandescent light bulbs very expensive to run, so whilst they are cheap to buy initially you pay out a lot more in electricity costs - so there is a much higher "Cost Of Ownership". |
