Compact Fluorescent Light Bulbs Box-o-Bulbs (Box 1)

[@Placeholder71]

I'm a young lamp collector and I have a draw of old lamps. I even have a working 18w T8 in cool white! Lamp is 2 foot and has never been used.

[@bulbman256]

Glad your back my guy! Pretty similar where i have most of my lamps in a big drawer with most wrapped in bubble wrap.

[@Paul-qz8he]

Those old preheat cfls last forever. I've got one (some no-name brand) that has been used every day since summer 2003 and it still works. Probably because it is used for several hours at a time and it preheats the electrodes for a decent amount of time.

[@Lunar_Capital]

Amazing, a CFL that’s been running longer than my brother has been alive 😆

[@StupidLightingFreak]

i have 2 preheat tubes, one t8 and one t12, they haven't been powered on since circa 90s, and they still work in 2024!

[@StupidLightingFreak]

p.s these bulbs were prob bought in the 80s

[@brave1.0]

The cfl bulbs that are sold at Home Depot are not bad bulbs. They will last a while just as long as if they are not turned on for more than 7 times a day. Don't use them in bathrooms or other location that will make them turned on for more than 7 times a day

[@Alexthetechie]

Your an amazing KZbinr I love your lightbulb collection. You need more subs this channel is awesome :)

[@dancoulson6579]

2:13 is my favorite. I miss that design where the ends were flat, and bridged together. The newer ones tend to be spiral, or U shaped tubes.

[@TeslaFan-hr1yy]

12:38 then they get phased out by LEDs

[@im_munted]

i need to up my cfl collection. can't even name a fav out of all these. they're all unique

[@Redmi_pad-i3v]

Wow full box and flourescen bulb

[@guilhermoferreira7275]

6:18 i have two bulbs like that one in my house one in the living room and the other in the kitchen but sadly the one in the kitchen went out in a loud bang,now theres only one and this one is the longest living bulb in the house,it never had a problem.

[@johnskuttysabu7915]

I lie florescent tubes than led tubes.because it has cool day light.!!!

[@redfishcrawfish3647]

Same for me

[@brave1.0]

I like these old cfls even if they are Made in China or Mexico because they can run circles around the earth. Rapid or Preheat start is the way to go cause the cathode has time to warm up but the new ones are instant start so they burn out faster making you go buy a new one sooner.

[@homeguestunton]

If bulbs are made in China or Taiwan do you still like them.

[@brave1.0]

@@homeguestunton Yeah, I don't mind China made, I don't know about Taiwan but as long as they are rapid start bulbs or preheat, then I don't care where they are made.

[@homeguestunton]

@@brave1.0 Do you like instant start fluorescent or incandescent more?.

[@brave1.0]

@@homeguestunton I like both just depends. I like incandescent Made in USA or Japan. CFL it's ok to be made in china as long as it's got a RS or a preheat ballast.

[@homeguestunton]

@@brave1.0 A lot of GE and Sylvania bulbs are made in the USA. GE bulbs aren’t anymore. But some Sylvania bulbs are not that much as most are either sourced by GE or made in China. Philips was mostly either Mexico or Poland or China.

[@NateDaMan5]

I’ve never seen a red CFL before. Interesting

[@Alexthetechie]

Yeah their cool aren’t they I actually have a UV (clear not white coated) cfl

[@NateDaMan5]

@@Alexthetechie That’s pretty cool. A CFL that’s more like the arc tube in a standard non-coated MV lamp.

[@bototmeong4955]

wow it was amazing, sir, the collection of cfl lamps from what years were they, sir 🤔🤔🤔

[@risk9446]

I want to know which lightning are you using in that room at the time of recording this video? Please and your camera name?

[@alekogosh332]

I also have a lightbulb collection to!

[@SunsetfearOFFICIAL]

I have a big collection of CFL’s too i love them and still use them instead of LED.

[@brave1.0]

Instant start might be okay if they are to be operated on a dusk to dawn light where they aren't going to be turned on and off more than 7 times a day.

[@ke0wpc]

I have an instant start yellow bug repelling CFL in a dusk to dawn fixture

[@homeguestunton]

It’s pronounced fight not fee-it. Also that GE bulb was probably installed in 2005.

[@sounakdas9565]

Nice👍😊😊

[@Ignore_This_Account.]

I love incandescent, low pressure sodium, high pressure sodium, mercury halide, halogen, fluorescent and the nernst lamp which are basically a variation of the incandesent and they're so rare and old that most people reading this comment has never heard of, (check out Photonic Induction's video to see what I'm talking about.) But there is one lighting technology that I absolutely despise and hate my parents for using them, Light Emitting Diode (LED.) I absolutely despise them, they flicker, the color looks like crap and they're just too bright.

[@joeythefoxxo]

Classic LED hater lol. Good quality LED bulbs have near perfect color, no flicker, and are only as bright as their rated lumens. There is nothing that makes any other technology inherently better. LED’s have a longer life and WAY higher efficiency. The only downside I could ever think of is the price, however most places have rebates now.

[@CRISPYCHICKEN-v7b]

4:03 nice red color

[@xeniapittali4956]
