Fluorescent Lighting Fixtures

When electricity passes through mercury vapor in a glass tube, the invisible light given off interacts with the coating in the glass and produces visible light that is referred to as fluorescent light. All types of white light with good to very good color rendition are the hallmark of fluorescent lamps. These lamps are very energy efficient, and some models are also adaptable and can fit in any existing standard electrical socket. Older florescent lamps give off an eerie glow. This feature has, however, been improved upon, and the newer versions give off a flattering glow.

Fluorescent lighting fixtures are available with several features. They can be adjustable-even after installation. Several of these fixtures can rotate a full 180 degrees. This feature adds versatility to their use.

Generally, fluorescent light fixtures do not support dimming. This factor at times limits their usage.

As most fluorescent light fixtures have instant start electronic ballasts, they turn on without flickering. Installation of fluorescent light fixtures is also quite hassle free. In fact, if a series of them are to be installed, the job becomes very easy since they can be connected through flexible connectors.

There are a few varieties of fluorescent light fixtures that produce lighting that is similar to incandescent lighting. Some very small florescent lighting fixtures are also available. Lighting fixtures only a couple of inches wide also have their uses. Some fluorescent lighting fixtures can be installed as a group and be controlled by a single light switch.

Despite their drawbacks, florescent lighting fixtures are becoming increasingly popular due to their energy-efficient feature. Increasing environmental awareness is one main reason for this preference.

A Grandfather Clock for My Golden Years

Tue, 08 Apr 2008 13:44:45 -0700
It was 15 years already back in 1992 when I first came across a gorgeous grandfather clock. It was at a house warming party at Brigg Street intersecting with Bayview Avenue in Richmond Hill. The memory of this beautifu timepiece is vivid. People can't miss it as they enter into the house. It was the centre piece of the house right at the center of the mainfloor in the living room. Its antigue color and stylish texture tone perfectly matched the furnitures of the room. It was a
