What is another word for filament lamp?
Pronunciation: [fˈɪləmənt lˈamp] (IPA) 
A filament lamp, also known as an incandescent bulb, is a type of electric light that produces light by heating a wire filament to a high temperature until it glows. Other terms used to describe this type of light bulb include tungsten bulb, Edison bulb, and traditional light bulb. These bulbs are gradually becoming less popular due to the rise of more energy-efficient alternatives, such as LED and CFL bulbs, that use less energy and last longer. However, they still have uses in some applications and are appreciated for their warm, yellowish light and affordability.
