Energy saving lightbulbs

More and more people are switching to low energy, energy saving light bulbs, and there are a number of places like the Natural Collection where you can get a wide range of energy saving lightbulbs very cheaply indeed.

In most homes, lighting accounts for around 10-15 per cent of an electricity bill.

Energy saving recommended light bulbs work in the same way as fluorescent lights. An electric current passes through gas in a tube, making the tube's coating glow brightly.

Traditional lightbulbs waste a lot of their energy by turning it into heat. Each energy saving bulb can reduce your electricity bill by up to £7 a year. They also last, on average up to 12 times longer than ordinary light bulbs.

Over the last few years they have become cheaper and cheaper too. You can now get some great value Low Energy Long Life Light Bulbs so save money and help the environment at the same time!

The Ambiance Low Energy Bulb from the Natural Collection last on average 6000 hours. There is a big selection, so you can choose the size and fitting you require. They also look like normal lightbulbs, unlike some energy saving lighbulbs which can be an eye sore.

Ordering is easy. All you do is state the wattage and bayonet (BC) or screw (ES) fitting when ordering online.
