Stop the Flickering of CFLs
The conventional resources are depleting, hence a lot of research is dedicated to find out solutions to find a new source of energy or optimization of the current resources. Even from a household perspective, many small things help in saving energy. For example, the replacement of CFL (Compact Fluorescent Lamps) over the traditional incandescent ones facilitates the reduction in power usage. Also, the CFL has a considerably longer work life. Here are a few tips to ensure your CFL remains in a good condition for a longer period of time.
It is a bad idea to use a non dimmable CFL in a dimmer switch, as it may call for the flickering of the light. Allow the CFL a sufficient time between its subsequent ON (or OFF) positions. Rapidly pressing the button may cause flickering of the CFL. Also, make sure you call in for professional technical help when required.
