Do not meet the energy saving lamp seven hidden dangers 14 brands from Zhongshan

Chinese consumers reported that the use of energy-saving lamps in the gradual improvement, but because of the wide variety of energy-saving lamps, product quality is uneven.

The day before, Shenyang City Consumers Association released energy-saving lamps comparison test results, test of 30 brands of energy-saving lamps samples. The results show that the main indicators of anti shock protection, lamp power, initial light effect nearly half of the energy saving lamp samples do not meet national standards, several brands of energy-saving lamps can not achieve the energy saving effect, there are still security risks.

Comparison test: 14 brands of energy-saving lamp samples are not up to standard

In order to grasp the quality of energy-saving lamps on the market of the real situation, and guide consumers the right choice of energy-saving lamps, recently, Shenyang City Consumers Association staff as ordinary consumers in lamps market, electronics market randomly bought 30 brands of energy-saving lamps samples, commissioned a professional testing organizations.

Test items include: signs, interchangeability, electric shock protection, lamp power, power factor, the initial light effect, color characteristics of 7 important indicators.

The test results show that 30 samples in the sample does not meet the national standards, accounting for 46.66%, in the various indicators are not in accordance with the standard samples of the test on the. Among them, the nominal production Light Lighting Appliance Factory Manchester from Guangdong town in Zhongshan city of the trademark for "conga lighting" type YPZ220/13 energy-saving lamp, 6 indicators do not meet national standards.
