Consumer Reminder: "Four Notes" for purchasing energy-saving lamps


Recently, the Shenyang Consumers Association carried out comparative test work on some energy-saving lamp products distributed in the city. After inspection, 10 energy-saving lamp samples all met the national standards, accounting for 50%; 10 energy-saving lamp samples did not conform to the state. Standards account for 50%; there are three projects with outstanding quality problems: initial light efficiency, electric shock prevention, power factor, etc. The survey results show that the quality of energy-saving lamps on the market in our city is worrying. So, how should consumers buy energy-saving lamps?

Energy-saving lighting, high efficiency, good power consumption, good color

The standard name in the national standard for energy-saving lamps is a self-ballasted fluorescent lamp for general lighting. It is an energy-saving light source that is assembled from a single-ended compact fluorescent tube and an electronic ballast. It was first started in the mid-1980s in China. Production applications have been widely used in various lighting applications.

The energy-saving lamps mainly have the following characteristics: high luminous efficiency, about 5 times that of ordinary incandescent bulbs, saving significant energy when lighting is required; good color characteristics, high color rendering, and high color tone (daylight color, warm White, cool white light, etc.), can be applied to different occasions where color is required; long life, rated life 6000h, 6 times that of incandescent light bulb; easy to use, the lamp is equipped with universal thread or bayonet standard lamp head, can be directly It is interchangeably installed with ordinary incandescent lamps. Due to the high luminous efficiency, good color consumption, compact size, convenient installation and use, the sales volume of the market has been increasing year by year. The products are favored by consumers and are commonly known as energy-saving lamps.

Consumers have more complaints about the quality of energy-saving lamps

China's current production of such light source products are mainly concentrated in Guangdong, Shanghai, Zhejiang and other places. Most of the products distributed in the circulation field of our city are also from the above provinces and cities. In order to protect the environment and save energy, the government has vigorously promoted the use of energy-saving lamps in recent years, so the application of this product has become quite popular. However, due to the differences in the technical level, production conditions and scale of various manufacturing enterprises in the lighting industry in China, the quality level of such products in the market is uneven. Coupled with the disorderly competition of market prices, a large number of inferior products flooded the market, seriously jeopardizing the interests of consumers and confidence in the use of products. Consumers have more complaints about the quality of products. The quality problems reflected in the quality supervision and inspection of this product in recent years are also very prominent. A few days ago, the City Consumers Association's inspection results of energy-saving lamps for 20 brands distributed in the city, all accounting for only 50% of the national standards, the quality problems are more prominent.

Pay attention to the following four points when purchasing energy-saving lamps:

Try to buy energy-saving lamps of well-known brands. Because of the large scale of production enterprises of famous brands, the quality awareness is strong, the production equipment, process flow and management methods are relatively advanced, and the product quality is relatively reliable. A few days ago, the results of the test of 20 brands of energy-saving lamps by the City Consumers Association showed that the quality of energy-saving lamps of well-known brands basically conformed to national standards.

Try to go to a large supermarket to buy energy-saving lamps. Most of the large supermarkets in our city are relatively standardized in operation, and the quality of goods is strictly controlled, and the quality of the products being distributed is good. Recently, the energy-saving lamps of 20 brands detected by the Municipal Consumers Association have 7 brands of energy-saving lamps from large supermarkets. There are 6 brands that meet the national standards after testing, accounting for 85.7%; 13 from the professional lighting market, There were 4 tests that met all national standards, accounting for 30.8%. This can reflect that the quality of energy-saving lamps in large supermarkets is better than the quality of products in the professional lighting market.

When consumers purchase energy-saving lamps, they must put the safety requirements in the first place. For example, prevention of electric shock is a mandatory national safety standard for energy-saving lamps. Products with such quality problems are prone to personal safety. . When using energy-saving lamps, if abnormal conditions are found, you should promptly ask the professional to check and report, consult, and communicate with the dealer to prevent accidents.

After consumers purchase energy-saving lamps, they must obtain three invoices such as invoices and credit cards from the dealers to prevent the quality problems, and there is no room for complaints.
