Option 4 : No stroboscopic effect
Fluorescent lamps:
- A fluorescent lamp is a low-pressure mercury-vapor gas-discharge lamp that uses fluorescence to produce visible light.
- The typical luminous efficiency of fluorescent lighting systems is 50–100 lumens per watt.
Advantages of fluorescent lamps:
- More energy efficient than incandescent lamps
- Longer operational lifespan
- Better light diffusions and distribution
- Low running cost
- Less heat emission
The stroboscopic effect in a fluorescent lamp is a phenomenon that causes running or moving equipment to appear stationary or appear to be operating slower than they actually are. Fluorescent lamps are provided with a 50 Hz ac current supply.
Therefore, no stroboscopic effect is not a valid advantage of fluorescent lamps.
