Cold Cathode Fluorescents
==== Cold Cathode Fluorescents ====
Cold cathode fluorescents (CCF) are similar in construction to neon tubes and have up to 25,000 hours of service life. They are readily dimmable. Look for models that are listed for marine, [http://ulstandards.ul.com/standard/?id=234 RV UL-234], [http://www.csagroup.org/ CSA ] and [http://ec.europa.eu/growth/single-market/ce-marking/ CE ] (Europe), and meet the Ignition Proof test requirements of the United States Coast Guard, as stated in [http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/granule/CFR-2006-title33-vol2/CFR-2006-title33-vol2-sec183-410 Title 33 CFR 183.410]. CCFs are more efficient than other fluorescents but the tri-phosphor fluorescents have the most pleasing colour.
