How many lumens do 48 watt SAD Lights emit?
SAD lights are typically used for fish tanks or aquariums and these light usually generate about 73 lumens per watt. SAD lights in lamps generate more lumens then lights made for aquariums they normally generate about 10,000 lumens.
What is equivalent lumens of 40 watt incandesent bulb to led light?
Light is a little complicated because various devices for producing it have various efficiencies. Light is measured in lumens. Older incandescent lamps produce 10-15 lumens per watt of electrical power. Halogen lamps produce maybe 20 lumens per watt and lasted much longer. Several years ago the best LEDs were also 20 lumens per watt. Now the best white LEDs are 5 to 10 times better than incandescent lamps, and they last for a decade or more. Expect almost all lamps to be LEDs in the next few years.
How many amps in a 40 watt light bulb?
A lumen is the perceived intensity of the light, as seen by the human eye. The lumen value is largely determined by the the nature of the light, i.e. the sum of the different wavelengths of the light being transmitted by the particular bulb type.The standard tungsten wire-filament ('incandescent') bulb radiates a different type of light to a flourescentlight.* a 230 V, 40 watt incandescent bulb produces a light (quality) of about 400-500 lumens,* a standard 230 V flourescent lamp of only 7 watts will produce exactly the same value of lumens, i.e. 400-500 lumens. * the cool white XLamp XP-G 3.5 V LED lamp of only 3 watts will produce a similar value of lumens, i.e. 350 lumens. And is safer for the workers that make them and better for the environment. It is currently more expensive, but prices have been dropping about 20% per year. Therefore LED light bulbs convert electricity into light more efficiently than incandescent or florescent light bulbs. * For more information, See Related links below this box
Why do satellites suddenly emit a very bright white light?
Planets cannot emit light. They merely reflect light from nearby stars.
What is the efficiency of a fluorescent lamp?
In general, the incandescent lamp is less efficient than the fluorescent lamp. Fluorescent lighting fixtures are more expensive initially, but they pay for themselves in a relatively short time because they can easily generate the same amount of light using considerably less energy. It's that simple. Incandescent lamps heat a metal filament to white hot to get that metal to incandesce and emit light. But the thermal energy that the filament generates that is not optical light is "wasted" by the device. Fluorescent lamps ionize gases and generate light by fluorescence, and this creates less heat than an equally luminescent incandescent lamp. Much less, in fact. Links are provided below for more information.It works on the prinicpal of electrical resistance. The electric current flows through the filament of the bulb, suspended in the inert (no oxygen, which hastens burning) interior of the bulb. The filament is a very thin wire of a very tough element known as tungsten. The tungsten filament resists flow of the electrical current to the extent that it glows white hot. This produces heat (about 60%) and light (about 40%). That is how incandescent bulbs work.Another AnswerYou should be asking, "What is the EFFICACY of an incandescent lamp and a fluorescent lamp?"'Efficacy' is not the same thing as 'efficiency'. Efficacy compares the output power (luminous flux), of visible light expressed in lumens, with the inputpower, expressed in watts. Efficacy, therefore, is expressed in lumens per watt. 'Efficiency' on the other hand, compares total (heat plus visible light) output power, expressed in watts, with input power expressed in watts -which means efficiency has no units of measurement.Typical efficacies for GLS incandescent lamps range from 5-15 lumens per watt. Typical efficacies for fluoresencents range from 50-100 lumens per watt.
How many lumens are in a 300 watt incandescent light bulb?
The actual amount of light (lumens) given off by a bulb depends on the how the bulb was made and with what materials. It depends on the filament material, its length and thickness, and the type of gas in the bulb. As a rule, longer lasting bulbs of the same wattage will generally be less bright than others and brighter bulbs of the same wattage will not last as long as other bulbs.Sample lumen outputs:Sylvania 250 Watt Indoor Soft White 3-Way Bulb can emit 3940 lumens at its highest setting.Philips 250 Watt 120 to 130V PAR38 Krypton Flood Bulb emits 3100 lumens
What does a white light bulb emit?
light and heat
How much light does a 50w xenon bulb emit?
For a halogen xenon you'll get a max of about 30 lumens per watt, but more likely around 20. So for a 50 w you get around 1000 lumens.
Does a light bulb emit carbons when used?
the electricity used to power the light bulb emit carbon dioxide
Does a fluorescent bulb emit the same amount of heat as a metal halide bulb of the same wattage?
No, a fluorescent bulb does not emit the same amount of heat as a metal halide bulb of the same wattage.

What is the incandescent equivalent of a 40 Watt halogen bulb?
A halogen bulb IS ITSELF a type of incandescent illumination source. A 40 Watt traditional incandescent bulb usually emits about 400 to 500 lumens while a halogen may emit close to twice that. So a 25 W halogen might give out as much light as ah older style 40 W bulb.

How many lumens to equal a watt?
Incandescent bulbs: 10 lumens per watt Halogens: 13 lumens per watt CFLs: 50 lumens per watt A useful bulb to light a small room is 600 lumens, so that would need a 60-watt incandescent, or a 45-watt halogen, or a 12-watt CFL energy-saving bulb. The best CFL bulbs are the spiral ones.
