>>2662510Dunno how it works in other places, here LEDs are marketed as an equivalent to oldschool yellow lighbulb capacity. So for example if a LED says it has a capacity of 300W, it means it produces the same amount of light as an old 300W lightbulb, while obviously consuming only a fraction of actual watts
Its not off the mark either. The big one in my pic consumes 40W of actual electricity producing between 3500 to 3550 lumens while the box says its output is equivalent to a regular 300W lightbulb. In this case it would make more sense to say it produces the same amount of lumens to a regular 300W one. There's little way to actually measure the lumens on each, but its a specialized store and they give out 1 year warranty for all their lightbulbs so i trust it
Also lightbulbs i bought from this particular shop are in the 6000K range, being cool white. I figure there's not much yellow-red color in this rage so should i buy ones that are on a lower spectrum? But then again, wouldn't that mean they'd emit more heat?
Geniunely curious how it all works
