New Light Bulb Standards & Control4 The age of the Incandescent bulb has come to an end. As of Jan 1 production of the two most popular
bulbs on the market, 60- and 40-watt incandescent light bulbs ceased. The new era of efficient, energy saving light bulbs is upon us.
Although you will still be able to purchase incandescent bulbs, manufacturers can no longer produce them, resulting in a total phase out over the next few years.
There are 3 major type of bulbs coming on the market now; halogen incandescents, light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs).
Survey's show 46% of consumers will opt for CFL's, while 24% will use LEDs. Because of their difference to incandescents, CFLs require a different electrical load to work properly. Consumers are encouraged to learn about the new standard of bulbs, and what is required to utilize them efficiently.
