Energy Saving GLS Bulbs
Over 130 years after Sir Joseph Swan flicked on the electric lights to his Victorian house the EU finally phased out the regular incandescent light bulb. As we strive towards a more eco-friendly planet, alternative light sources have been sought. Even halogen technology has found ways to improve over basic incandescent performance, but the GLS bulb - the ‘General Lighting Service’ lamp used in most households and many businesses - has largely been replaced by energy-saving GLS equivalents or the more shapely ‘spirals’.
If you’re looking for a direct replacement for a regular, filament-burning GLS bulb, these energy-saving versions are the same size, and shape, but offer numerous advantages over the old technology: you can expect 10 to 15 times the lifespan of an incandescent equivalent; they use up to 80% less power; they create lower CO2 emissions; they’re cheaper than LED alternatives.
Lasting up to 15,000 hours, our energy-saving GLS bulbs are low-maintenance affairs. Gone is the familiar ‘pop’ of an incandescent filament, and the inconvenience of being plunged into darkness every year or so.
Lyco’s range of energy-saving GLS lamps offers plenty of choice, with bayonet or screw-cap fittings, a broad choice of wattages, and even the occasional dimmable bulb. Remember to allow for a warm-up time before dimming suitable CFL lamps.
With fluorescent lighting having improved in quality over recent years, we expect you to be pleasantly surprised by the performance of our modern Energy Saving GLS Bulbs!
