How many kilowatts does a energy saving light bulb use?
Energy-saving bulbs use much less than 1 kilowatt and most of them use less than 40 watts which is 0.04 kilowatts. A 20 watt bulb uses 1 kilowatt-hour of energy if run for 50 hours.
What type of light is a 20 watt energy saving bulb Halogen Incandescent neon or fluorescent?
A 20 watt incandesent bulb is dim. For a medium sized room you need 100 watts. A 20 watt halogen bulb is brighter but still quite dim. These are marketed as low-energy but they are not. For a medium sized room you need 80 watts. A 20 watt fluorescent bulb can light a medium sized room quite brightly. This is a genuine low energy bulb.
How do you prove that it is the wattage and not the physical size of a light bulb that matters for energy use?
Energy use is measured in watts. The watts used by a light bulb is on the package or the bulb. Find bulbs with the same wattage but different physical sizes if you want to prove this.
How much energy does a 5 watt light bulb produce?
None. But it does convert 5 watts of electrical power (energy per unit time) into 5 watts of [light + thermal] power.
Is compact fluorescent light the best energy saving bulb?
No, the most energy efficient bulbs are LED (Light Emitting Diode) light bulbs.
How much does a light bulb change the temperature of a room?
Very little, but it is noticeable, with a bright light in a small room. A light bulb puts out between 9 watts (energy-saving fluorescent light bulb) to approximately 100 watts (bright incandescent light bulb). Your average bar-heater, for comparison, puts out about between 1200-2400 watts.
Can energy saving light bulb charge a phone?
No. An energy saving light bulb is just a light bulb, and can't charge anything. The reason it's called an "energy saving" device is that it can give you the same amount of light while using less electrical energy than older bulbs used.
How many watts in an energy efficient light bulb?
100
What does an energy saving light bulb do?
It uses less energy to produce the same amount of illumination as a standard light bulb
How many kilowatts does a energy saving light bulb use?
Energy-saving bulbs use much less than 1 kilowatt and most of them use less than 40 watts which is 0.04 kilowatts. A 20 watt bulb uses 1 kilowatt-hour of energy if run for 50 hours.

What type of light is 20w energy saving bulb Halogen Indandecent neon fluorescent etc please help?
The energy saving light-bulbs are usually fluorescent. Neon is a type of fluorescent light bulb.

Energy use is measured in watts. The watts used by a light bulb is on the package or the bulb. Find bulbs with the same wattage but different physical sizes if you want to prove this.
How many watts are in a security light with a 40 watt bulb?
If it is a 40 Watt bulb it converts energy at the rate of 40 Watts as long as it is switched on.
Are there gases and chemicals in a light bulb?
yes there is in the spiral energy saving light bulbs there is mercury
Is a watt a light bulb?
A 60 watt light bulb is a light bulb with 60 watts capacity. When talking about watts, you're talking about the power that is transferred from the appliance to the accessories. Therefore, the light bulb labeled "60 watts" takes 60 watts to light up. A 60 watt light bulb will not be as bright as a 120 watt light bulb.
What is the difference between the energy saving light bulb and the filament bulb?
Energy saving bulbs (typically LEDs) provide higher lumens per watt compared to filament lamps.
