Everything Ive heard is that CFs are mutch better than T12 fluorescent tubes, but
about the same as T8s

Hi,

I've heard that CF lights retains at least 80% of it's original light quality
through the life of the bulb. My question is how much more energy efficient is
CF compared to standard Fluorescent tubes? if any. Also, how much longer life
does CF have versus stand fluorescent? if longer.

Thanks,

JJ
