You just have to divide the watts by the voltage to find the amps. For example 60 watts on a 120 v system would take ½ amp.

You could but it would be extremely bright! An incandescent lamp of 60 watt is about 800 lumens And so a 10 watt LED lamp should be plenty big enough. If you want as much light as possible instead of energy saving then you can fit bigger wattage LED lamps. Also, because they run a lot cooler, you can often exceed the maximum (Incandescent) rating for the fitting.
Not in the least, and you will still save money. A 100W equivalent will use only 20 to 25 watts, well below the 60W rating of your fixture. Much of the 60W used by the incandecent bulb is dissipated in heat. This is where the danger in over-watting fixtures lies.
Actually The filament of a light bulb can get up to about 810.5 degrees Celsius. Also it was invented in 1352 by a dinosaur named Ronald McDonald. It is his birthday today! I bought him a hot DOG!
Hello all...I have just recently replaced all the dash/instrument lights in my '92 previa GL..the instrument cluster has 4 retaining screws to remove ( after you take off the heater/radio surround and the cowling over the intrument cluster) and then you gently pull the whole unit toward the steering wheel, be careful as it is attached to a steel wire underneath, so that you don't pull all the wires out of the back !!Reach behind or get out and have a look through the screen and you will find 3 large, 1/4 turn, bulb holders. A gentle twist and pull out reveals a D501 pattern bulb...I have replaced mine with BLUE NEON ones from Halfords ( �6.99 a pair ) and they look absolutely wicked.I then went on to replace the heater, cigar lighter and ashtray bulbs with blue 'pea' led's ( they work one way round and not the other...trial and error but you can't blow the bulbs..).The only ones that I haven't been able to source in blue yet are the real tiny ones that fit in the various switches...I'll post again once I find some or solve the problem in some other way.If anyone knows where I might get some...? Please let me know.
An average adult breathes about 0.5 L of air per breath at rest. Normal air contains ~ 0.03 % of CO2 which gets enriched to 4 % of exhaled air. The difference, 3.97 % is what you exhaled. One mole of air at room temperature have a volume of ~22.4 L (use ideal gas equation p*V=n*R*T, p=pressure [bar], V=volume, n=amount in mole, R=ideal gas constant, T=temperature [Kelvin]). 1 mole CO2 is equivalent to 44 g. So, 0.5 L*(1 mole /22.4 L)*(44 g / mole) = 0.982 g One breath therefore contains ~ 1 g of exhaled CO2 Note: Some of the gases are not ideal (mostly CO2), the volume of one breath depends on the person (sex, age, fitness, size) and the activity. It can be up to 2 L at least. But it is just an approximation anyways. Btw - 1 kWh of electricity cost about 600 g of CO2. An average light bulb of 60 W therefore gives rise to the production of 10 g CO2 / s during use (not counting its production or disposal). ******************************************************************* If one breath is 4% CO2 and 1 breath is 0.5 liter, Mass of CO2 = 0.04*0.5 L* (1/22.4) mol/liter* 44 g/mol * (273 K/310 K) = 0.035 g/breath, not 1 g/breath. Body temp is 37 oC = 310 K, but that's a minor point. If 1kWh results in 600 g of CO2, 60 Watts leads to 60W*600 g/kWH *(1/3600) h/sec *(1/1000) kw/W= .01 grams/second of CO2 not 10 g/sec. Otherwise people may feel guilty about breathing. **************************************************************** some serious problems with the decimal place in the original answer. atmospheric content co2 is roughly 350 PPM or .00035, less than the original answer by several orders of magnitude. maybe that's why all the histeria about global warming, smoking in the boys room during middle school math....

The 100W light bulb is brighter than the 60W light bulb. The difference in brightness is 40 watts.
The average lifetime of an incandescent bulb is around 2000 hours.
The "w" in 60W on a light bulb stands for watts, which is a unit of power. In this case, 60W indicates the amount of power consumed by the light bulb while it is illuminated. A higher wattage typically corresponds to a brighter light output.
Yes, a 100-watt light bulb is brighter than a 60-watt light bulb because it produces more light.
Watts = Volts X Amps. Amps=Watt / Volts. So, with a 240V mains, a 60W bulb draws 0.25amps. On a 12 system (car/auto) a 60W bulb draws 5 amps. On a 110V mains, a 60W bulb draws .55 Amps.
Thsi depends on the light bulb specification. For example if you buy a standard 60W light bulb from your supmarket then this will consume 0.06kilowatts. Its simple just divide the wattage stated on the light bulb by 1000 to give you the kilowatts
A 9W LED bulb is roughly equivalent in brightness to a 60W incandescent bulb.
The best candelabra base LED bulb with a 60W equivalent brightness is the Philips LED Dimmable B12 Candelabra Base Bulb.
The amount of CO2 produced would depend on the type of light bulb and its wattage. As a general estimate, an incandescent bulb (60W) would produce approximately 0.9 kg of CO2 if left on for 35 hours, while an LED bulb (10W) would produce about 0.15 kg of CO2.
a normal incandescent 60 watt light bulb uses 60 watts of electricity to produce 20 watts worth of light, and 40 watts worth of heat. It is more of a heat bulb than a light bulb. it is great if you can capitalise on the free heat, but if it is not cold in your house, turn it off. is there a better bulb? no. why are they ideal? cheap (as low as 10 cents for the el cheapos), never change shape/design/size/compatability, make pleasant light I could go on for an hour, but the best bulb is the cheapest.
Oh, dude, let me break it down for you. If you connect a 40W bulb and a 60W bulb in series, the 60W bulb will glow brighter because it has a higher wattage rating. It's like having a race between a tortoise and a hare - the hare (60W bulb) is gonna shine brighter than the tortoise (40W bulb). So, yeah, the 60W bulb takes the spotlight in this series connection scenario.
