Is it that far behind LEDs etc in terms of efficiency/life?

the thin fls are very good, but don't perform ok if the room's cold. LEDs have overtaken general purpose T8s in efficacy.


A florry gives a more even illumination than a series of LEDs.

not significantly. LED tape can be run anywhere, generally giving better illumination.

Also a better selection of colour temperature, etc.

RGB LEDs give way more colour temp choice. Whites are more limited.
