Incandescent bulbs are rated E-F
Conventional incandescent bulbs use four times as much power as A-rated energy saving bulbs, so you can save money by fitting the A-rated versions.
Incandescent bulbs are rated E-F.
Conventional bulbs are only recommended for lights that will not be on for long, or where it is important to have good colour rendering, for example over the dining table or in rooms where you are painting and redecorating.
Incandescent bulbs give off a warm light and have a softer hue than halogen lights which concentrate the light much more.
