Lumens vs. Watts

LUMENS &WATTS EXPLAINED... Are you in the dark when it comes to lightbulbs, watts and brightness? Then it's time you knevw lumens from your watts! EFFICIENCY OF LIGHT IS TRADITIONALLY MEASURED IN WATTS. HOWEVER, LUMENS ALLOW YOU TO CHOOSE CHOOSE BULBS BASED ON THE AMOUNT OF LIGHT YOU NEED. There isn't necessarily a correlation between lumens and watts because they measure different things. 2000 LUMENS You'll soon start seeing light bulbs categorized by lumens rather than wattage. ||| WATTS MEASURE THE AMOUNT OF ENERGY USED BY AN ITEM SUCH AS A LIGHT BULB Lumens measure the brightness of a bulb. When choosing an energy-efficient bulb to purchase, shopping by lumens is more important than shopping by watts. LOW ENERGY BULBS USE FEWER WATTS THAN TRADITIONAL BULBS BUT CAN BE JUST AS BRIGHT. JUST LOOK HOW EFFICIENT MODERN DAY LIGHTING HAS BECOME! LUMENS INCANDESCENT L.E.D 2600 Lumens 150 W 25-28 W 1600 Lumens 100 W 16-20 W 1100 Lumens 75 W 9-13 W 800 Lumens 60 W 8-12 W 450 Lumens 40 W 6-9 W When addressing light efficiency, more energy (watts) in doesn't necessarily mean more light out. This can be due to the quality of the bulb, and the speed at which lighting technology is evolving. TO QUALIFY FOR ENERGY energ STAR, LIGHT BULBS MUST MEET CERTAIN LUMENS-PER-WATT STANDARDS.
