- Please reply via e-mail. I already read more newsgroups than I
- can keep up with, or is good for my health. 8-)
-
- I'd like to find a summary of the wattage ratings of typical
- fluorescent bulbs, for example the three foot (or so) long,
- one inch (or so) diameter ones; the little (six inches long?)
- horse-shoe (approximately) shaped ones, etc.
-
- I'd also like some reference about how much light they actually
- give off, particularly in comparison to incandescent lights,
- and about how much fluorescent light is needed - it seems that
- we always use far too much.
-
- Thanks!!
