Comparing Light Bulbs with Differences in Wattage
Incandescent 100 Watt Lumens: 1,500 Bulb Life: 750 hours Light Output: Larger Heat Output: Greater | Incandescent 25 Watt Lumens: 210 Bulb Life: 2,500 hours Light Output: Smaller Heat Output: Smaller |
Reflection: It think that this will definitely help me in the future because it helps me know that even though they are both light bulbs, they are almost completely different and so I can save electricity and money if I need to shop for light bulbs for my family. I was very surprised when I saw how much longer that the 25 Watt light bulb lasted then the 100 Watt. But I guess that it makes sense because the 100 Watt takes up way more light then the 25 Watt.
Comparing Different Types of Light Bulbs with Similar Wattage
Incandescent 25 Watt Lumens: 210 Bulb Life: 2,500 hours Light Output: Smaller Heat Output: Larger | C.F.L 24 Watt Lumens: 1,690 Bulb Life: 6,000 hours Light Output: Larger Heat Output: Smaller |
Reflection: I was really surprised when I saw how many hours the 24 Watt was than the 25 Watt. It was a lot more then I thought it would be. I learned that the Light Output for the 25 Watt was larger then the 24 Watt. I thought it was the other way around! :) But now I understand what I did wrong!
Comparing Different Light Bulbs with Different Lumens
Incandescent 100 Watt Lumens: 1,500 Bulb Life: 750 hours Light Output: Smaller Heat Output: Greater | CFL 24 Watt Lumens:1,690 Bulb Life: 6,000 hours Light Output: Greater Heat Output: Smaller |
Reflection: I was surprised how much more Bulb Life the CFL has because the Incandescent because the Incandescent has only 750 hours and the CFL has 6,000 hours. I found it amazing how many lumens both of them had! A LOT!!!
