lower wattage bulb
The wattage will depend upon the type of bulb and the number of lights on the string. It will tell you on the package what each bulb requires in wattage, so you only need to multiply that by the number of bulbs in the string. so, number of bulbs x wattage requirement for each bulb = wattage requirement.
The wattage of bulb one uses in a bedroom lamp depends on several factors. If it is a lamp used for back ground lighting or a night lamp, one would use a very low wattage bulb. If it is for a bedroom reading lamp, one would want a stronger wattage. The biggest factor on deciding what wattage to use is the wattage suggested by the lamp manufacturer. All lamps are marked with recommend bulb wattage.

You can use a lower wattage bulb on a higher wattage fixture provided the voltage rating is the same and the bulb base is the same.
Most equate wattage with the amount of light a bulb will put out. But, the wattage is the result of the resistance of the element and the voltage and is the amount of heat. the frequency is unrelated.
