I need 20 different kind of light and types of lamps for a project. I need to know the location, type, location, purpose and advantage. An example would be
Type: incandescent, Location: Rooms at home, Purpose: decoration, Advantages: Inexpensive and easy to change. if You can give me 20 like the example I provided it would be great.

this is in the form of a table so it can be easily inserted into Word/Excel etc.
Tungsten Incandescent | Rooms at home | Home illumination | Inexpensive and easy to change
Mercury vapor discharge | Offices | Broad diffused lighting | Efficient, inexpensive, easy to change
Neon | Business front displays | Signage | Colour able, can make shapes
Xenon discharge | Cameras | Flash bulb | High intensity with low power
Low Pressure Sodium | Streets | Streetlights | Monochromatic but very efficient power to lumens
High pressure sodium | Streets and greenhouses | General lighting and hydroponics | broad spectrum
Cathode tube | Electronics | Monitor Displays | Highly controllable and precise directional power
Nixie tube | Numeric displays | Information | Preset symbols displayed in same valve transistor
Electron Stimulated Luminescence (ESL) | Various | Replacing incandescent | Much more efficient
Induction Lighting | Various | Replacing discharge | More efficient and requires no live power contact
Organic LED | Electronic devices | display screens | high response time and contrast
LED | Electrical device | indicator lamps | long life, very fast on/off
Electroluminescent wire | commercial products | writing/signing | unbroken line of light, thin diameter
LASER | optical fibre | communication | highly coherent, consistent controllable output
| Rooms at home | Decoration | long life, electronic power factor correction
Sorry, this is all I have for you at the moment.
