These lamps are used for fluorescence effects where less visible light is ideal. 09 N/A Sun-tanning lamps: These lamps produce wide or narrow band UV-B radiation 10 BL Black-Light lamps: Black light lamps give off long-wave UV-A radiation of around 350-400 nm. They are often used to attract insects to traps.
An incandescent light bulb, incandescent lamp or incandescent light globe is an electric light with a filament that is heated until it glows. The filament is enclosed in a glass bulb that is either evacuated or filled with inert gas to protect the filament from oxidation. Electric current is supplied to the filament by terminals or wires ...

Efficiency: LEDs emit more lumens per watt than incandescent light bulbs. [63] The efficiency of LED lighting fixtures is not affected by shape and size, unlike fluorescent light bulbs or tubes. Size: LEDs can be very small (smaller than 2 mm 2 [64]) and are easily attached to printed circuit boards.
