LED bulbs measure brightness much differently than incandescent bulbs do. Some still believe wattage equals brightness but in today's world, lumens are what is used to measure light output. While wattage is still useful to know for energy cost, it no longer is an accurate gauge for brightness.
Because LED lamps are up to 85% more energy efficient than traditional filament bulbs, the correlation between "more watts = brighter light-bulb" no longer applies. We use lumens to measure the brightness of LED lighting products like lamps, so "more lumens = brighter LED lamp". Our educational video explains the new way of measuring the brightness

Question: If a 60 watt equivalent led bulb uses only 9w and the socket is rated for 60w regular bulb, Is it possible to use a larger lums bulb without over lamping? Need some advice on this one. I was talking to someone and they said to only use the equivalent. Another said that I should go by the socket Watts rating. So anyone know which it is?

@ChristmasOnCrestline 4 месяца назад

Great question, RGO! In this case, it's generally safe to use a 9-watt LED bulb in a fixture rated for a 60-watt incandescent bulb. The '60-watt equivalent' label means it produces similar light output with significantly lower power consumption. As long as you stay within the fixture's maximum wattage rating (60 watts in this case), you're good to go! It's a more energy-efficient option. Just be sure not to exceed the fixture's wattage limit to ensure safety. If you're looking for more light, you can explore higher-lumen LED bulbs while staying within the fixture's wattage recommendation. Hope this helps!

Generally speaking, for a small home office (with computer) which K rating is best? Im currently using 3,000 K bulbs and this doesnt seem to be interacting with my monitor well.

@ChristmasOnCrestline 6 месяцев назад

Choosing the right lighting for a home office, especially when using a computer, can make a big difference. The 3,000 K bulbs might not be the best fit for your setup, especially if they're not interacting well with your monitor. Consider trying bulbs with a cooler temperature, around 4,000 K to 5,000 K. These temperatures tend to mimic natural daylight and might create a better harmony with your monitor, reducing eye strain and providing a more comfortable workspace. Experimenting with different color temperatures could help you find the perfect match for your office setup.

Replacing kitchen led flood light. Bulb says 50/60Hz. Is this same as 5000/6000K? AND 2values implies dimmable? Also 800 lumens and 13watts. (Ok with these numbers). I’m considering replacing all 6 bulbs. Thoughts?

@ChristmasOnCrestline Месяц назад

Hey there, Jerry. Those are some great questions. Let me answer those for you. It sounds like there's a bit of confusion about the information on the bulb's label. The "50/60Hz" on your bulb refers to the electrical frequency, not the color temperature or dimmability. Hz stands for Hertz, which measures the frequency of the electrical current. The two values (50Hz and 60Hz) just mean that the bulb can operate on both frequencies, which is common for compatibility with different electrical systems worldwide. This doesn't indicate that the bulb is dimmable. Dimmable bulbs are usually labeled specifically as "dimmable." Your bulb's 800 lumens and 13 watts show it's bright and energy-efficient. If you're happy with the light quality, replacing all six with the same specs is a good idea. Just make sure to check if you need dimmable bulbs if you're using a dimmer switch. I hope this clears things up! Let me know if you have any more questions.

Good Video clip; Still wondering on Security camera it says 65k Kalvin's in brightness, So for my simple understanding in comparison. Would that be as bright as a Daylight bright LED 60 watt 75 watt or 100 watt. Thanks for baking it down to something simple to compare to. Your great Thanks in advance. Or perhaps I just need to ask what a 6500 K equal in Lumens?

@ChristmasOnCrestline Год назад

You're close, Boss. Kelvin is the color range of a white light. So, yes, it would be comparable to a daylight looking light source. Kelvins don't really equate to Lumens though. Kelvin is the color of white light and Lumens is the brightness that light is seen at. For a security floodlight to have a 6500K rating, it means the light source will not be yellow like a 3000K and it won't be bright blue, like a 10,000K light source. 6500K is a really nice daylight light color. Which also works really well for security cameras too!

Hello, i have a stairwell shelter of around 20m2 and bought 4 24w led light of 2160lm to put on one side of the roof and the other side.. will it be too bright?

@ChristmasOnCrestline 2 месяца назад

Hi there, DJ! Thanks for reaching out and sharing your lighting setup plan for your stairwell shelter. Based on the information you provided, you've chosen LED lights with a total output of 2160 lumens each, totaling 8640 lumens for all four lights. The brightness of your lighting setup will depend on several factors, including the height of your ceiling, the color of your walls, and personal preference. However, in general, 8640 lumens might be quite bright for a 20m² area, especially if the lights are positioned close to eye level. To ensure comfortable illumination without causing discomfort or glare, you might want to consider dimmable options or installing fewer bulbs. Alternatively, if the lights are dimmable, you could adjust them to a lower brightness level that suits your needs. It's always a good idea to test the lighting setup before permanently installing it to see if it meets your desired level of brightness. Feel free to experiment with different configurations until you find the perfect balance of brightness and comfort for your space. I hope this helps & let me know if you need any other info!

@ChristmasOnCrestline 2 месяца назад

Hey there, Linda. The video shows several color samples that displays the color and the K rating at the same time and shows you exactly what color to expect. But, to answer your question, 3000K: This is considered to be a warm white light. 4000K: This falls into the category of neutral white light. 6000K: Is classified as cool white light, sometimes referred to as daylight white. The lower the K, the more yellow it will seem. The higher the K, the more blue it will seem. I hope that helps!

@ChristmasOnCrestline 4 месяца назад

I've heard of them. They are meant to be better for the eyes. As an example, the blue light from computers is harmful to our eyes. If you wear prescription glasses, your eye doctor has likely asked you if you wanted blue block on them. With that said, it would take some getting used to!

I have a light meter app, it reads “lux” and “fc”? I’m looking for a good light for my houseplants. I have a 5000k bulb that said 1100 lum. It seems really bright, I don’t want to burn leaves. When I did the light test, it read 24,530 “lux” and my actual plant grow light only reads 1690 “lux”. What is lux and fc in relation to lumens? Shouldn’t the plant light have been brighter? I’m confused.

@ChristmasOnCrestline 2 месяца назад

That is a great question, HC. Lumens measure the total amount of light a bulb emits, like how much water comes out of a hose. Lux and foot-candles (FC) measure how bright that light appears to our eyes and how it spreads out over a surface, like how water spreads out on the ground after coming out of a hose. So, even if one bulb gives off more light (lumens), if it spreads out over a larger area (lux), it might not seem as bright in one specific spot. In your case, your 5000K bulb emits a lot of light overall (1100 lumens), and it seems really bright when you measure it with lux (24,530 lux). But your plant grow light, even though it emits less light overall (1690 lumens), might be more focused or placed further away, so it seems dimmer in the lux measurement. To avoid harming your plants, consider factors like how close the light is to them and how long they're exposed to it. Even if a light seems really bright, if it's spread out or not very focused, it might not be as intense for your plants. So, watch out for signs of burning and adjust accordingly! Does that help? If not, I can explain it a few other ways for ya. Let me know - Charlie

@ChristmasOnCrestline Год назад

Hello there, Stephanie. The 60W has an estimated yearly cost of $7.23 and the 100W is estimated at $12.05. So, neither will break the back for energy cost. If I had to buy it again, I would just go with the 100W simply as it allows you the ability to bring it down to where you want it. Plus its 9000 lumen mark allows for a more cool white color. Hope that helps.

My light says 60w max does that mean only 60w bulb or can I use 8w lightbulb?

@ChristmasOnCrestline 3 месяца назад

Sure! When a light fixture says "60W max," it means it can handle a light bulb with a maximum power of 60 watts. But you can use a bulb with less power, like an 8W bulb, without any problems. Think of it like this: the fixture is saying, "I can handle bulbs up to 60 watts, but I'll work just fine with a lower wattage bulb too." So, feel free to use your 8W lightbulb in that fixture-it's all good!

@ChristmasOnCrestline 8 месяцев назад

Great question, LG. You just need the high lumens really. The Kelvin chart is to determine what color of white light you are getting. The lower the Kelvin, the more yellow it is. The higher Kelvin number, the more blue it will be. 5000 Kelvins is the mark where the white goes from a yellow hue and begins crossing into the blue color range. If you are an Amazon shopper, one of the filters (on the left side of the page) is the lumen count. For flashlights, I'm a Streamlight fan. Here is one of the flashlights I use, this is a 1000 lumens: amzn.to/474g4a3 This has two location for the power button and can clip on my belt or pocket for walks but it is small enough to go into your pocket as well.

Im still a bit confused. I went to buy a smart LED bulb that had a chart on the back that said 0 - 6000k. It was at '3000k soft light'. I need the daylight lighting and the guy said it can do 5600k no problem. Huh? I read the box and it says it can do up to 5000k so why is it marked 'soft light 3000k'? Ugh..

@ChristmasOnCrestline Месяц назад

No worries, I've got you, Phat. It sounds like you're dealing with a confusing situation regarding the color temperature settings of your smart LED bulb. The Kelvin (K) rating on the bulb indicates the color temperature, with lower numbers (like 3000K) representing warmer, softer light and higher numbers (like 5600K) representing cooler, daylight-like light. If the box says the bulb can go up to 5000K, it means it can adjust to various color temperatures up to that limit, despite being currently set to 3000K. The "soft light 3000K" marking is likely the default setting, but you should be able to adjust it to your preferred daylight setting using the bulb’s app or controls. As this is a smart bulb, the app or controls should allow you to manually adjust the light's temperature. Many smart bulbs are like this.

What about the thousands of lumens that LED car bulbs promise with 20, 40, 60, 90 and 100 watts of consumption... for example, LED bulb with 100 watts and 40,000 lumens. Is it a scam or is it true?

@ChristmasOnCrestline 3 дня назад

Thanks for your question! The lumens output claimed by some LED car headlights can indeed be confusing. While LEDs are generally more efficient than traditional bulbs, the relationship between watts and lumens can vary significantly based on the quality and design of the LED. For LED car headlights, claims of very high lumens (like 40,000 lumens for a 100-watt bulb) should be approached with caution. Many manufacturers may exaggerate their claims to make their products appear more powerful. A more realistic output for high-quality LED headlights might be around 10,000-12,000 lumens for a 100-watt bulb. Here is an example of a typical 26W headlamp with 1800 lumens: www.autozone.com/electrical-and-lighting/fog-light/p/type-s-9005-9006-offroad-headlight/1070955_0_0 It's essential to look for reputable brands and products that have been tested and reviewed by third parties. Reliable manufacturers often provide detailed specifications and testing results, and products with certifications (such as from the DOT or ECE) are more likely to meet their claimed performance. So, while some claims might be exaggerated, high-quality LED headlights can indeed offer significant brightness with relatively low wattage. Just be sure to verify the claims with trustworthy sources. Hope this helps!
