Does anyone have experience using compact
fluorescent light (CFL) bulbs in a museum setting? How much heat do they give
off? How about ultraviolet light? We are a state agency that
oversees 27 historic sites including historic houses and other historic
buildings as well as visitors’ centers with offices etc. I hear
that CFLs are cost effective, but I have the other questions.
Thanks,
