What else can I help you with?
Can you use a 75 watt light bulb on a lamp rated 60 watt max?
Usually the 60-watt limit is used to prevent the lampshade overheating, so a 75-watt bulb should not be used. But if more brightness is required, try a low-energy bulb because a 15-watt one gives the same light as a 75-watt incandescent (old-style) bulb. Or a 20-watt would be even brighter.
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.
What compact fluorescent lamp bulb do you use to replace a standard 60 watt bulb?
A 20 watt CFL may fit into the 60-watt standard. But you should never fit one higher than the 60-watt, due to such a high fire hazard. It's not exactly the wattage but the heat coming from the bulb, so keep in mind not to go any higher than 60.
How much energy does a 100-w light bulb use in 20 s?
A 100-watt light bulb uses 100 watts of power, which is equivalent to 100 joules per second. Therefore, in 20 seconds, it would consume energy calculated as follows: 100 watts × 20 seconds = 2000 joules. Thus, a 100-watt light bulb uses 2000 joules of energy in 20 seconds.
Does the brain operate on the same amount of power as a 10 watt light bulb?
No, the brain does not operate on the same amount of power as a 10 watt light bulb. The brain is estimated to use about 20 watts of power, which is roughly equivalent to the energy consumption of a dim incandescent light bulb.
Can you use a 71 watt bulb in a 60 watt fixture?
Light fittings should not be overloaded electrically because overheating can cause a fire. Alternatively you could use a 20 watt low-energy bulb.

How many kw consumption does a 20w bulb consume in 24 hours?
A 20-watt bulb consumes 20 watts of power. To calculate its consumption over 24 hours, multiply the wattage by the number of hours: 20 watts × 24 hours = 480 watt-hours. To convert watt-hours to kilowatt-hours (kWh), divide by 1,000: 480 watt-hours ÷ 1,000 = 0.48 kWh. Therefore, a 20-watt bulb consumes 0.48 kWh in 24 hours.

A 100-watt light bulb uses 100 watts of power, which is equivalent to 100 joules per second. Therefore, in 20 seconds, it would consume energy calculated as follows: 100 watts × 20 seconds = 2000 joules. Thus, a 100-watt light bulb uses 2000 joules of energy in 20 seconds.
Can a 220V x 40W bulb bought in India used in America where supply standard is 110V x 60Hz and does the power consumed varies?
If you can use it in your lamp it will be a 20 watt bulb
Does the brain operate on the same amount of power as a 10 watt light bulb?
No, the brain does not operate on the same amount of power as a 10 watt light bulb. The brain is estimated to use about 20 watts of power, which is roughly equivalent to the energy consumption of a dim incandescent light bulb.
How bright is 70 lumens?
A little bit less than a 25 watt incandescent bulb - the the table below:Bulb brightnessA 100 watt Bulb is rated at approximately 1700 lumensA 60 watt incandescent bulb is rated at approximately 800 lumensA 40 watt bulb is rated at approximately 400 lumensA 25 watt bulb is rated at approximately 180 lumensA 4 watt night light bulb is rated at approximately 20 lumens
How many lumens in a 20 watt halogen bulb?
Approximately 15 lumens per watt for halogen, so 300 lumens.
What does 40 watts bulb mean?
An electrical watt is a measure of power. A 40 watt light bulb uses 40 watts of electrical power. It has a relative measure of twice the light output of a 20 watt bulb and one half the output of an 80 watt bulb. A 40 watt bulb uses 40 Joules of energy each second, or 40 watt-hours of energy each hour. In 1000 hours it uses 40 kilowatt-hours or Units of electrical energy.
Do you go by watt equivalent or actual watt usage on a halogen bulb to determine what bulb to use?
Strictly the power in watts measures how much energy is used, while the brightness is measured in lumens. Bulb packaging should carry that information. But 'equivalents' are a useful way for manufacturers to bamboozle customers, so halogens often carry an 'equivalent wattage' figure, which means the power of an ordinary old incandescent bulb of the same brightness. If you had a 100 watt old-fashioned bulb, that is replaced by a 70 watt halogen. It could also be replace by a 20 watt CFL bulb that is obviously less expensive to run and lasts much longer.
