Pros

Energy Saving: Compact fluorescent lamp (CFL) uses up to 75% less energy than incandescent lamps, reducing electricity costs.
Longevity: With an average lifespan of up to 15,000 hours, this lamp lasts longer than traditional lamps, reducing replacement and maintenance costs.
Neutral White Light (4000K): Provides natural, eye-friendly lighting suitable for both workspaces and common areas.
G24Q-2 Socket with 4-Pin Connection: This socket offers a secure and reliable connection for fixtures requiring a four-pin socket.
Good Color Rendering (CRI): With a CRI of ≥80, objects appear natural under this lamp's light.
Cons

Contains Mercury: CFLs contain a small amount of mercury, harmful to the environment and health, requiring proper disposal.
Slow Start-Up: These lamps may take a few seconds to warm up to full brightness, making them less ideal for places where instant lighting is necessary.
Non-Dimmable: CFLs cannot be dimmed, so their brightness cannot be adjusted.
Fragile Design: CFLs are sensitive to mechanical impact and require careful handling.
Shortened Lifespan with Frequent Switching: Frequent on/off cycling can reduce the lamp's lifespan.
The compact fluorescent lamp is an excellent choice for those looking for efficient, long-lasting, and neutral lighting. This lamp is ideal for commercial and public spaces where reliable lighting is needed, but considering its environmental impact and slower start-up, alternative options like LED lamps may be worth exploring.
