What is Equivalent Wattage
Equivalent wattage compares the brightness of different types of light bulbs. It is a metric that indicates the wattage of an incandescent bulb that produces a similar level of brightness as the bulb being compared. This metric serves as a way for consumers to easily understand and compare the jas of different bulbs using a familiar unit of measurement.

The concept of Equivalent Wattage is particularly relevant in the context of newer, more energy-efficient lighting technologies such as LED and CFL bulbs. These bulbs can produce the same level of brightness as traditional incandescent bulbs while consuming significantly less power. By providing an Equivalent Wattage value, manufacturers make it easier for consumers to choose bulbs that match the brightness they desire, even when using different types of bulbs.
While equivalent wattage can be a useful reference point, it may not always accurately reflect the actual brightness of a bulb. The most accurate way to compare the brightness of bulbs is by looking at the “lumens” rating, which measures the amount of light emitted by a bulb. Therefore, it is recommended to consider both the equivalent wattage and the lumens rating when selecting a bulb that meets your desired level of brightness.

Často kladené otázky
Is 100W LED Brighter Than 60W LED
Answer: If you are looking for a brighter option, the Philips 100W replacement LED (on the right) will provide an even more noticeable increase in brightness compared to the 60W incandescent bulb (on the left).
What Is the LED Equivalent to a 60 W Bulb
For instance, if you usually buy 60W incandescent bulbs that emit approximately 700-800 lumens, you can opt for a more energy-efficient alternative such as a 42W halogen bulb, a 12W CFL, or even a 10W LED bulb to achieve the same level of brightness.
