This depends on the bulb design. A simple tungsten filament bulb might have a surface temperature of the bulb well above 100 C. A fluorescent lamp will be much cooler for the same light output.

What one is brighter a 60 watt light bulb or a 100 watt light bulb?

If the two bulbs use the same technology the 100 w bulb is 10/6 times brighter than the 60 w. Incandescent bulbs give about 10-12 lumens per watt Halgogen gives about 15-18 lumens per watt CFL (low-energy) gives about 50 lumens per watt.


What is a 50 watt type G-10 bulb?

A 50-watt type G-10 bulb refers to a light bulb that consumes 50 watts of power and has a G-10 base type. G-10 bulbs are commonly used in specialty lighting fixtures, such as some recessed lighting and pendant lights.


Would you use less electrical energy burning a 60 watt light bulb for 900 seconds or a 100 watt light bulb for 500 seconds?

It would use less electrical energy to burn the 60 watt light bulb for 900 seconds. This is because the total energy consumed is calculated by multiplying the power (in watts) by the time (in seconds), so for the 60 watt bulb: 60 watts * 900 seconds = 54,000 watt-seconds, and for the 100 watt bulb: 100 watts * 500 seconds = 50,000 watt-seconds.


Can you run a 50 watt halide bulb on a 100 watt halide ballast?

No, it is not recommended to run a 50 watt halide bulb on a 100 watt halide ballast. The ballast should match the wattage of the bulb to ensure proper operation and to avoid potential damage to the bulb and ballast. It is best to use a ballast that is rated for the wattage of the bulb being used.


Will 60 watt bulb put out same wattage at 50 and 60 hz?

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.

What is the closest comparison to determine if a 10 watt halogen bulb will be enough light in outdoor lighting?

No, it will not be. You will need at least a 50 watt halogen for outdoor lighting.


Can you use a 50 watt halogen bulb for a 100 watt halogen bulb?

Yes. It just won't be as bright.


Low voltage 50 watt bulb use same electricity as 50 watt incandescent?

Yes


Do a 12 volt 50 watt bulb and a 230 volt 50 watt bulb draw the same current?

No, they do not draw the same current. The current drawn by an electrical device is determined by the power (Watts) and voltage (Volts) using the formula: Current (amps) = Power (Watts) / Voltage (Volts). So, the 12 volt 50 watt bulb will draw higher current compared to the 230 volt 50 watt bulb.


What is the percentage of light output between CFL bulbs and an incandescent bulb?

Incandescent: 10-12 lumens per watt CFL: 50 lumens per watt.


How many amps in a 50 watt light bulb?

To find the current in amps for a 50-watt light bulb, you can use the formula ( I = \frac{P}{V} ), where ( I ) is the current in amps, ( P ) is the power in watts, and ( V ) is the voltage in volts. For example, if the bulb operates at 120 volts, the current would be ( \frac{50}{120} ), which equals approximately 0.42 amps. If the bulb operates at a different voltage, simply adjust the voltage in the formula accordingly.
