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.
Can you use a 70 watt high pressure sodium bulb in a 100 watt ballast?
No. The bulb has to match the ballast wattage exactly. And you can't interchange different lamps (like metal halide) either. The ballast is specific to that wattage and lamp type. The bulb will either burn out quickly or just not work properly at all
Can you use a 60 watt compact fluorescent bulb in a 40 watt fixture?
It depends. A 60 watt CFL draws approximately 13 watts. So you could actually put a 125 watt CFL in as it only draws 30 watts. However most CFLs cannot be dimmed nor are CFLs recommended in harsh environments such as refrigerators or ovens. Also because the coils of a CFL get larger in diameter adn height as the brightness increases, some fixtures may be unable to accomodate a 60 watt CFL let alone a 125.
Can a 250 watt heat bulb go into any lamp?
No, not all lamps are suitable for use with heat bulbs. Check the lamp's specifications to ensure it can handle the heat output of a 250-watt bulb and has proper ventilation to prevent overheating and potential fire hazards. It's recommended to use lamps specifically designed for heat bulbs to ensure safety.
Can you put a 40w bulb in a 60w lamp?
Yes, you can put a 40w bulb in a 60w lamp. The wattage rating on the lamp indicates the maximum wattage the lamp can handle, so using a lower wattage bulb is safe. Just make sure the base size and type match.

What is the minimum watt of a light bulb 30 40 50 60 or 70 watt for night reading?
40 watts. I did an experiment on this. Go do one and see for yourself. Sheesh. -_-
What is 60w light bulb?
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.

How much energy does a 250watt bulb use per hour How much energy does the average light bulb use per hour?
There are many factors that go into calculating the energy usage of a light bulb. The wattage printed on the lamp is only the energy use of the lamp when it is new. Depending on the kind of lamp he energy required to run it will increase as it ages. For example a Metal Halide lamp can use up to 50% more power in the last 20% of its life.Another factor is the ballast that may be required to run the lamp. Each ballast has a "ballast factor" which can increase or reduce the overall energy usage of the lamp. Many ballasts have a factor as high as 1.2 which would increase the energy consumption of the lamp to 300 watts.AnswerThe question is asking about energy, not power as per the previous answer. To find the energy consumed by a lamp, or any device come to that, multiply its power rating by the time for which it is used. So a 250-W lamp will use 250 W.h (watt hours) of energy in one hour, 500 W.h in two hours, and so on. Energy is more-commonly expressed in kilowatt hours, for the purpose of billing however, where 250 W.h corresponds to 0.25 kW.h, etcAnswer: In an hour it uses 250 watt-hours. The average bulb probably uses 20-60 watt-hours each hour.
How do you make a lamp?
go to the store buy a lamp, put in you house and there you are!

What is lumen output for a 250w halogen?
Halogen lamps run hotter than conventional incandescents, and as a result of their hotter filaments, emit a whiter light with more of the light in the visible range, and less in the infrared. A typical 50W halogen emits between 800 and 950 lumens.
What is the minimum watt of a light bulb for night reading?
40 watt light bulb. This is obvious. Go do an experiment. -_-
Are there any pictures of James watt?
you're kiddin' me! Of course theres pics. of James Watt. Just go to google images, type in James Watt, and Bingo!, dozens of pictures of James Watt right in front of you!
