Fluorescent light bulbs

The term 'Fluorescent light bulbs' as it applies to the area of energy can be defined as ' These are usually long, narrow, white tubes made of glass coated on the inside with fluorescent material, which is connected to a fixture at both ends of the light bulb; some are circular tubes. The light bulb produces light by passing electricity through mercury vapor, which causes the fluorescent coating to glow or fluoresce'.
