CFL longevity and how to make it last longer. Compared to incandescent light bulbs, Compact Fluorescent Lamps (CFLs) rated lifespan is typically 8 to 15 times longer (6,000 to 15,000 hours). CFLs produce less light over time and it is expected that they produce 70â80% of their original light output by the end of their projected lifetime.
Their long performance life further ensures LED lights are a worthwhile investment. Just how long does an LED replacement light bulb last? While it can vary slightly depending on the bulb, on average LED light bulbs last over 50,000 hours. That would be almost six years if left on twenty-four hours, seven days a week. In terms of usage, if you leave your light on all day (16 hours), an LED replacement bulb would last 3,125 days or approximately 8.5 years.
