Compact Fluorescent
Our compact fluorescent light bulbs (CFLs) offer energy-efficient, long-lasting lighting for a wide range of applications. PL-S bulbs are ideal for tight spaces, delivering reliable performance in compact fixtures. PL-C bulbs suit general lighting needs, while PL-T options provide higher output for commercial and industrial environments. For broader light spread, 2D bulbs feature a flat, space-saving design perfect for bulkheads and emergency fittings. Spiral and Helix CFLs maximise brightness in a minimal form, making them a smart choice for efficient lighting where space is limited.

Compact Fluorescent Lights (CFL Bulbs) – Energy-Saving Lighting Solutions
Compact Fluorescent Light (CFL) bulbs are highly energy-efficient lighting options designed to deliver excellent brightness while consuming far less power than traditional incandescent lamps. Using advanced fluorescent technology, CFL bulbs pass an electric current through a gas-filled tube with a phosphor coating, producing bright, reliable light suitable for both domestic and commercial environments.
Choosing the Right Compact Fluorescent Light Bulb
Selecting the perfect CFL lamp depends on brightness, colour temperature, shape, and base type. Compact Fluorescent Lamps are available in various designs, including spiral (helix), tubular, PL-S, PL-L, PL-C, and PL-T formats. Whether you need a plug-in CFL for commercial fittings or a screw-in or bayonet cap bulb for home lighting, LightShopDirect offers a comprehensive range to suit every requirement. Our CFL bulbs are ideal replacements for older fittings and compatible with a wide range of luminaires.
Common Applications for Compact Fluorescent Lamps
CFL bulbs remain a trusted choice for a wide range of lighting applications. They are perfect for table lamps, ceiling pendants, bulkheads, outdoor security lights, recessed fittings, and display lighting. Their exceptional energy efficiency and long lifespan make them a cost-effective lighting solution for areas that require continuous use, such as offices, retail spaces, and hospitality environments.

Frequently Asked Questions
Compact Fluorescent Light bulbs (CFLs) are highly energy-efficient alternatives to traditional incandescent lamps. They deliver comparable brightness while using significantly less power. Unlike LED bulbs, which use solid-state technology, CFLs operate through a gas discharge process that produces soft, even light ideal for both domestic and commercial use.
When selecting a CFL lamp, consider the base type (such as BC/B22 bayonet, ES/E27 screw-in, or pin-based PL-S, PL-C, or PL-L fittings), along with shape (spiral, globe, tubular, or 2D) and wattage/brightness. Matching the right base and size ensures full compatibility and optimal performance in your light fixture.
Only certain CFL models are dimmable. Always check the product packaging or technical data to confirm whether the CFL bulb supports dimmer switches or specific CFL dimmable circuits.
CFL bulbs provide longer lifespan, excellent energy efficiency, and lower running costs, consuming up to 75% less energy than older incandescent lamps. They also generate less heat, helping to reduce environmental impact and carbon emissions.
Yes, Compact Fluorescent Lights can be used outdoors, but they must be installed in IP-rated, weatherproof light fittings designed to protect against moisture, dust, and temperature variations. This ensures safe and reliable outdoor performance.
Because CFL bulbs contain a very small amount of mercury, it’s important to handle them with care. Open windows for ventilation, avoid vacuuming the area, and dispose of the fragments at an authorised recycling centre or through your local waste collection service.
