Replacing Golf Ball Light Bulbs With Low Energy Alternatives

If you have smaller decorative lamps around the home e.g. table lamps, it’s likely that they could have small round incandescent light bulbs known as golf ball light bulbs – so called because of their obvious similarity in appearance.  These bulbs tend to be fitted into smaller fittings and spaces, and are likely to have Small Edison Screw (SES) and Small Bayonet Cap (SBC) bases, as well as ES and BC bases.  Although these types of bulb are likely to be used for shorter periods of time than main room lights, the incandescent versions are still likely to be relatively energy inefficient. Ultimately incandescent golf ball bulbs are still subject to the EU Rulings (starting in September) for the phasing out of incandescent bulbs, in favour of energy saving, halogen and CFL alternatives.  Although the ruling involves replacement of higher wattage incandescent bulbs in the first 2 years, all, including lower wattage will definitely be gone by 2012.  However, the energy saving alternatives to golf ball light bulbs are available now, and there’s no reason why you shouldn’t start saving money (and the environment) from today. 

Low energy golf ball bulbs / golf ball lamps have high efficacy, and long life e.g. they can reduce running costs by over 80% and have 10,000 hours life.  Lower (alphabetically indicated) EU energy efficiency ratings on bulbs are a good indictor of your likely savings in energy costs.  For example, 7 watt low energy golf balls are a very similar size to incandescent versions, but have an energy efficiency rating of ‘B’ (the closer to A the better).  Their low wattage, high output, very long life, and availability with traditional bases means the slightly higher purchase price will be easily offset by the energy savings over time, and the reduced  hassle and cost of not having to replace them so frequently.  Low energy golf ball bulbs give of less heat too, and may therefore be more beneficial in saving any colour fading or heat marking on lamp shades.
