Incandescent light bulbs
Incandescent light bulbs are incredibly popular right now because they fit beautifully into the stone décor which is so popular nowadays. The Incandescent light bulb is stylish in most lamps and chandeliers but can also be a lamp in itself – the incandescent lamp. The beautiful filament is both decorative and beautiful when it glows in the glass that can be developed in different shapes, tones and with effects. The bulb is available in multiple sizes. A large incandescent bulb is often a filament lamp, whereas small lamps can be used more diversely. They can also be used as filament lamps, where they are stylish when several hang together in bunches. We produce incandescent light bulbs in 2 socket sizes: E14 and E27.
What are incandescent light bulbs?
Incandescent light bulbs are electric light sources that produce light by heating a filament wire to a high temperature until it glows.
What are the key characteristics of incandescent light bulbs?
Warm light color (around 2700K)
Immediate full brightness
Short lifespan (about 1000 hours)
High energy consumption
Simple and inexpensive design
How do incandescent light bulbs work?
Incandescent light bulbs work by passing an electric current through a thin tungsten filament, heating it to a temperature that produces light. The filament is encased in a glass bulb filled with inert gas to prevent oxidation.
What is the history of incandescent light bulbs?
Incandescent light bulbs were first developed in the early 19th century, with Thomas Edison and Joseph Swan both credited with inventing practical versions in the late 1870s. They became the dominant form of electric lighting throughout the 20th century.The historic atmosphere gives the room a cosy and magical atmosphere. The light from a standard incandescent lamp is warm, welcoming and cosy. Danlamp is a Danish incandescent lamp factory that started in 1931. This means that we are one of the most experienced and talented suppliers of light bulbs for decorative and technical purposes. We take pride in the manufacture of small and large incandescent light bulbs of the highest quality.
What are the technical specifications of incandescent light bulbs?
Wattage (power consumption)
Voltage (operating voltage)
Luminous flux (light output, measured in lumens)
Color temperature (light color)
Lifespan (hours of operation)
Base type (e.g., E27, E14)
How to Dispose of Incandescent Light Bulbs?
Incandescent light bulbs can be safely disposed of with regular household waste, as they do not contain hazardous materials like mercury. However, it’s advisable to wrap them in paper or place them in a plastic bag to prevent breakage and protect against sharp fragments.
incandescent light bulbs vs led
Incandescent light bulbs and LED bulbs differ in several significant ways. Incandescent light bulbs produce light by heating a tungsten filament until it glows. This method results in low energy efficiency, as most of the energy is lost as heat. The light color from incandescent bulbs is warm, around 2200-2700K, providing a pleasant and cozy illumination. Incandescent bulbs have a high color rendering index (Ra value), typically around 100, which means they render colors very accurately and naturally. Another advantage of incandescent bulbs is their low initial cost, but they are fragile and sensitive to shocks and vibrations.
In contrast, LED bulbs produce light through electroluminescence using a semiconductor. This technology is highly energy-efficient, as most of the energy is converted into light rather than heat. LED bulbs are available in a range of color temperatures, from warm to cool white, offering greater flexibility in lighting options. While many LED bulbs have good color rendering capabilities, their Ra value can vary, often ranging from 80 to 95. Although LED bulbs have higher initial costs, this is offset by their energy savings over time. Additionally, LED bulbs are more durable and resistant to shocks and vibrations.
It is not possible to manufacture an incandescent light bulb that produces poor light quality, but creating an LED bulb with excellent light quality requires extensive knowledge and experience.
