9 watt led brightness.

While the math for the cfl bulbs is simple the led bulbs are even more energy efficient and durable than compact fluorescent light bulbs. In fact a 60 watt led just may blind you. Watts to lumens energy output to brightness produced here is a breakdown of traditional watt light bulbs and the amount of light they produce in lumens. Nothing is bright enough for me except for the 200 watt incandescent bulb or maybe the sun.

For example you can have the same brightness from an old 60 w incandescent which has since been phased out from a halogen using 42 w cfl using about 13 w or an led using just 10 w. Consult our chart for equivalent watt vs. A light bulb that produces 800 lumens will produce the same brightness no matter if it is an led cfl or traditional incandescent bulb. To choose a replacement bulb with the same brightness as your old one take it with you to the shop and match it up.

To save the most money on your electric bills replace your bulbs with the lowest wattage for the desired lumens brightness. Lumens are the new unit of measurement for brightness in light bulbs. The assumption is that a 100 watt light bulb for example is naturally going to be brighter than a 40 watt bulb. Brightness i know what you are thinking sure the led uses less power but they aren t bright enough.

This means it s useless to use watts to determine brightness. Led lamp 70 watt metal halide 30 watt led 100 watt metal halide 40 50 watt led 150 watt metal halide 60 70 watt led 175 watt metal halide 80 90 watt led 70 watt high pressure sodium 40 watt led 100 watt high. Leds are designed to use less energy and naturally have a lower watt rating. The luminous intensity on.

While that works for incandescent bulbs although even then it is an imprecise way of measuring brightness with the development of low energy led light bulbs the wattage alone will not necessarily indicate how bright a bulb is.
