You can duplicate the size and profile of standard incandescent bulbs, dimmable bulbs, candelabra-type bulbs, flood lights and circleine bulbs. Available in a range of sizes. Eco-Saver Circleline Bulbs produce pleasant overhead light.
Lumens indicate light output, while watts indicate power being consumed.
Compact fluorescent lamps are usually compared to incandescents according to watts. To determine the true light output equivalent, check the lumens. Manufacturers are required to list on the package watts, lumens and the life expectancy of the bulb. The package will also list any circumstances that will diminish performance of the bulb. E.g., a 1000-watt clothes iron consumes 1000 watts of power.
