What wattage in halogen bulb is equal to 300 watts in incandescent bulb?
Mindella
Halogens are about 30% more efficient so 300 watts incandescent is equivalent to about 210 watts halogen. It's also equivalent in brightness to about 60 watts CFL.

How bright is 950 lumens?
220 lumens is equal to a tungsten incandescent light bulb of 15 watts. Halogen lamp 20 watts. Fluorescent lamp 60 watts. LED lamp 60 watts. high pressure sodium vapour lamp 117 watts. Mercury vapour lamp 50 watts or 17.32 candle power
How many amps in a string of Christmas lights?
It depends on which lights get used. A 100-count string of incandescent mini lights runs at 40 watts, while a 70 count of 5mm Wide Angle LEDs is approximately 4.8 watts total. In fact, because incandescent wattage is 80-90% more than LED wattage, the cost to power an incandescent can be up to 90x greater than powering an LED. Calculate Amps by dividing total wattage by 120 volts (US household outlets carry 120 volts) So about .33 for incandescent and about 4 for LED.
Does a compact fluorescent lamp use 60 watts the same as a standard lamp?
40 watts is 40 watts, that is what you are paying for. However, an incandescent bulb uses the 40 watts to make light and heat. The compact bulbs make more light and less heat for the same wattage. To actually save, choose a lower wattage that will give acceptable light levels.
Can you use 40 watt in a fluorescent light in place of a 32?
Yes, the wattage is just the power consumption. A 30 watt Fluorescent will give more or less the same light as a incandescent bulb or 60 watts, which is the limit for your fixture for incandescent bulbs.
What is the wattage measured in?
Watts. Big wattage is measured in kilowatts (watts x 1000).CommentThe clue is in the name!
Does the life of a light bulb depend on its wattage?
Yes, Of Course The lifetime depends on the wattage. The wattage is the amount of Power the light bulb uses, and the life time depends on the power. Thank you
What is the wattage of a 42 inch led TV-?
The wattage of a 42 inch LED TV varies by make and model. The average wattage is 48 watts.
Can you use a smaller watt bulb in a bigger fixture will it run at bulb watt or fixture watt?
Yes, because the "higher" watt energy saver bulb (cfl) is actually a lower watt bulb than a standard (incandescent). Always look at the actual watts, not the 'light equivalent watts'. 11 watt low energy tube = 60 watts of old-fashioned light. More light, less heat!
How much energy do fluorescent light tubes use per hour?
Depends on the bulb. There are different sizes. <<>> It is not the wattage of the tubes that is the concern, it is the wattage of the ballast that is connected to the power source that has to be known for circuit loading. Look on the ballast and you will see an amperage that the ballast draws. Use the formula W = A x V to find the line side wattage. Once all of the wattage's have been added up use the formula; I = W/V, this will give you the amperage the circuit so that the wire size and breaker size can be calculated. <<>> The power used by the bulb, in watts, should be printed somewhere on the bulb. A CFL like the one in the picture would use 15-20 watts.
12 volt solar equal to amp?
Solar panels are rated in watts output. To find the amperage use this equation, Amps = Watts/Volts. The wattage will be on the nameplate of the solar panel.
What is more efficient a 120V 13W fluorescent bulb or a 12V 50W halogen bulb?
Fluorescents are always 3-4 times more efficient than halogens which are a version of incandescent bulb.
How many watts does a recessed light used?
The wattage rating of a recessed light is governed by the amount of heat it can dissipate. The wattage rating is set by a standards organization and has to be adhered to by the manufacturing company. The label that is on the recessed light fixture is the maximum size incandescent bulb that can be used in the fixture. Depending on the bulb size used in the fixture will reflect the amount of watts the recess light will use.
