    Fluorescent lamps provide little or no light at ambients below 15 degC where specialized lamps can provide better illumination at colder temperatures. The use of fluorescent lamp technology even for high mounting requirements is fairly common in the European market. Long life fluorescent lamps with lamp life up to 80,000 hours is typically used in areas where quality of light and accessibility are important.
