The power a light bulb consumes is measured in watts. Light output is often described in terms of watts, as wattage was the only measurement distinguishing different light bulbs in the years before CFL bulbs were commonplace.
Light output may also be described in 'candlepower', although this unit of measurement is obsolete and was replaced by the 'candela' in 1948. 'Lumens' are the standard of light measurement in terms of what the human eye can perceive, and you may see these on light bulb packaging occasionally as well.
Incandescent light bulbs are generally measured in watts, indicating the power consumed by the bulb.
The amount of light of light produced is measured in lumens. Fluorescent bulbs produce more lumens per watt than incandescent. LED lights produce more lumens per watt than florescents.

Light bulbs provides light with the help of electricty,so we can say that bulb consume power and unit of power is watt.one kilowwatthour is equal to one unit also.
First, check the bulb to see if it needs replacing. If the bulb is fine, then the issue might be with the temperature sender unit or wiring. You may need to replace the sender unit or re-wire the connections to fix the temperature light.
More watts means it uses more energy per second (watt is a unit of power). If it is a light-bulb of the same type of technology, the higher-watt light bulb would also give off more light.
The unit for intensity of light is candela(cd). However, bulbs are rated by their power usage which is measured in watts(W)
The wattage rating of a lamp bulb is a measure of the power it consumes, not the duration it operates for. The rating tells you how much power the bulb will use when it is in operation, but it does not provide information about how long the bulb will last before needing to be replaced.

1) because the unit has a bulbous shape (the outer glass bit) 2) because the unit produces/emits light. The name is an exact description of that it does and its shape.
how do you change a brake light bulb from a citroen c4 tail light unit. thanks
The light bulb unit is found underneath the carpet behind each tail light area. Remove the plastic screws holding the trunk carpet to the interior sides behind the rear lights, follow the wiring to the center of the tail light, this is the light bulb unit-unscrew and remove.
is the foglight a one piece unit
peel bak the carpet in the he rear of the light assembly unit, there are two clips to be moved and the unit pops out. replace the bulb and reassemble
its very easy open the hood and remove the carpet from the light there will be 2 bolts the whole light unit will come out and then replace the bulb .
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.
Its a whole led unit replace whole deal not bulb

4 Screws, remove tailight unit, twist & replce infected bulb ......
