Hardware Hints By Bob anderson
It’s about that time again for another energy legislation update on light bulbs. Beginning with July 14, 2012, many 4 and 8 foot T12 size bulbs could no longer be manufactured. Modified T12 bulbs will become available but will be significantly higher due to rare earth phosphors needed in the manufacturing process in order to meet the new standard.....now there’s a shocker. Fixtures do not have to be changed to convert from a T12 bulb to the T8 bulb. You can just replace the ballast which usually costs more than buying a new fixture. However, savings are expected to be between 22% and 40% or about a 14-18 month payback. Another benefit is that you will have less light output loss over the life of the bulb, which means it will stay brighter, longer. Now I’m going to go out on a limb here and say that if the world is supposed to end on December 21st, you might want to wait a little while before converting. Just sayin’.
