How To Reduce Your Electric Bill

Step 1: Light Bulb Statistics

The light bulb is the most used electric gadget of the century. Forty to seventy percent of random homes electric bills are generated by light bulbs. Eighty-three percent of homes use incandescent class-e light bulbs, which use a huge amount of energy and generate a low amount of light.

Step 2: Energy Saving

Now I am going to show you a simple way to get more light and cheaper electric bills; the fluorescent light bulb. They are available in all shapes and sizes. They produce up to seventy percent more light than regular light bulbs and use up to five times less energy. In fact, the twenty five watt fluorescent can perform as well as a one hundred watt incandescent.

Step 3: Incandescent Light Bulb

Here is the incandescent and here you can see the fluorescent; now there is a big difference. As you can see here, the incandescent breaks down after a while, but the fluorescent keeps on shining. This is my electric meter with all the lights in my house on incandescent, this is it on fluorescent lights. You can see it is at a much lower speed which means I use less energy.
