Light bulbs are available in various types like LED, CFL, and incandescent. Each type has unique features. LED bulbs are energy-efficient and long-lasting. CFLs use less energy than incandescent but more than LEDs. Incandescent bulbs provide warm light but consume more energy and have a shorter lifespan.
Light bulbs' wattage indicates energy usage rather than brightness. Consider lumens for brightness. LEDs offer high lumens with low wattage, saving energy costs. For example, a 10-watt LED can replace a 60-watt incandescent bulb, providing similar brightness.
Light bulbs like LEDs can be dimmable if specified on the packaging. Ensure compatibility with your dimmer switch. Dimmable LEDs offer flexible lighting options and save more energy when used at lower settings.
Light bulbs' lifespan varies by type. LEDs last up to 25,000 hours, CFLs around 8,000 hours, and incandescent bulbs about 1,200 hours. A longer lifespan reduces replacement frequency and costs over time.
Light bulbs' color temperature impacts mood and ambiance. Measured in Kelvin (K), warm white (2700K-3000K) creates a cozy feel, suitable for living areas. Cool white (3500K-4100K) is ideal for kitchens and workspaces, while daylight (5000K-6500K) mimics natural light for reading or detailed tasks.
Light bulbs designed for outdoor use can often be used indoors too. Check if they meet indoor requirements such as size and fixture compatibility. Outdoor-rated bulbs are durable against weather conditions but ensure they fit your indoor aesthetic needs.
