In 2007, the U.S. federal government enacted legislation to
make incandescent light bulbs more efficient by setting maximum wattage
requirements.
Governments around the world have passed measures to phase out incandescent
light bulbs for general lighting in favor of more energy-efficient lighting
alternatives. A compact fluorescent lamp (CFL) uses a fluorescent lamp tube
which is curved or folded to fit into the space of an incandescent bulb and
contains a compact electronic ballast in the base of the lamp. An LED lamp is a
light-emitting diode which is assembled into a light bulb for use in lighting
fixtures. Some LED lamps are made to be a directly compatible drop-in
replacement for incandescent or fluorescent lamps. Call Rogoz Electric at
