While you should take care when cleaning up broken CFL bulbs
or disposing of inactive, intact bulbs, they are completely safe to
use. No mercury is released when the light bulb is working or
handled. The amount of mercury inside of a CFL bulb is small.
LED Bulbs
The LED light bulb uses at least 75% less energy and lasts 15
times longer than a standard incandescent bulb. They also turn on
instantly without a warm-up time and give off much less heat
than standard bulbs. Compared to a standard 60-watt
incandescent bulb, an equivalent LED bulb can give off between
60 and 100 lumens per watt.
