Compact Fluorescent Candle Base 40 Watt 5 Pack
This is a package containing 5 9 watt compact fluorescent candle base bulbs for replacing standard 40 watt candle base bulbs. Candle base bulbs are frequently used in home dining room and hall fixtures. These CFL candle base bulbs will use less than 1/4 of the electricity of standard incandescent lamps. The complete package of 5 bulbs will save about $95.00 in electricity costs over they life time of about 5 years (about $19.00 per bulb) [@ electricity costs of $0.10/KWH].
These bulbs are rated at 6,000 hours, which is about 4 years of standard residential use (@ 4 hours a day).
Besides energy cost savings to you, you'll also reduce the energy demand of your electric power provider and reduce the air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions associated with your energy needs.
An easy solution for reducing energy use and greenhouse gas emissions
Compact Fluorescent Lamps are among the simplest and cheapest solutions available to the average person to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. While most alternative energy solutions start at costs in the 10's of thousands of dollars and take decades for return on investment, CFL lamps costs 10's of dollars, and payback for frequently used lights is often about 2 years. They're aren't many other quick and easy solutions you'll find that can cut energy use by 75%, have such rapid payback, and work as effectively as the product being replaced. You can expect each of these CFL bulbs to prevent the production of more then 300 pounds of CO2 over their lifetime. So the 5 bulbs here can reduce your impact on the environment by about 1,500 pounds of CO2.
