If you’re monitoring your electricity usage you probably already know what a big impact using cold cathode bulbs can have on your home electricity. These bulbs typically save about $40 per bulb over their four year life – a net value of about $30! Illuminate your life today with these stylish and useful Cold Cathode Bulbs.
Cold cathode bulbs are substantially smaller and more energy efficient than standard fluorescent bulbs, so they last up to 35 times longer. But even though the bulbs are only half the size of a pencil, they never skimp on bright, quality light. And because they don’t heat up, fire hazards are never an issue with cold cathode bulbs. With cold cathodes the cathode operates at the ambient room temperature.
There are several advantages of the cold cathode bulbs:
They have a very long lamp life.
They’re dimmable.
They can be used in situations where the bulb is turned off and on frequently.
They are “wet rated”, meaning they can be exposed to the elements, and they are able to be used on a dimming circuit.
Bulbman and 1000 Bulbs also sell a range of cold cathodes.
