Comparing Light Bulbs with Differences in Wattage
Incandescent 25 watt Lumens: 210 Bulb Life: 2,500 Light Output: Smaller Heat Output: Larger | Incandescent 100 watt Lumens: 1,500 Bulb Life: 750 hours Light Output: Bigger Heat Output: Smaller |

I think it is awesome that a bulb with almost 8 times LESS lumens can outlife a bulb that has more power than it's self. I think this is epic because it produces less light but can still win the race, this is so weird because if it has less power you would expect it to burn out or go out because you'd probably think it is too weak. I also kinda predicted this because if this bulb is taking up so much energy and using it right away, it will blow out quicker. Slow and steady, small but mighty.

Comparing Light Bulbs with Similar Wattage
Incandescent 25 Watt Lumens: 210 Bulb Life: 2,500 Light Output: Smaller Heat Output: LARGER??? | CFL 24 Watt Lumens: 1,690 Bulb Life: 6,000 Light Output: LARGER! Heat Output: SMALLER??? |
Something I learned and am on an emotional roller coaster about is that the smaller bulb produced more heat energy than the bulb with more lumens. I also kinda predicted this because so little of the energy is going to light and so much was being used for other reasons. (Which I now know) The other reason is the heat, the not-so-bright bulb burnt Mr. Solarz before the Compact Bulb did. I still can't get over the fact that it ended up like this. WOW!!
