Compact fluorescent lamps have very long lifetimes

Osram now offers pin-based compact fluorescent lamps with an average life of 36 000 h to meet professional lighting requirements. The very long life of Dulux XT lamps considerably extends the maintenance cycle, leading to much lower lighting costs — particularly for luminaires that are difficult to access. Despite the long life, energy savings of 80% compared with traditional GLS lamps are achieved.
This long life is available with three lamp types, enabling the right product to be selected for any application.
