Candelabra and globe CFLs have been around for years, and LED models are coming on line now, too. I have some sockets that take nothing higher than a 60-watt bulb. If I use an LED or CFL, can I use a brighter bulb? For instance, a 13-watt CFL is equivalent to a 60-watt incandescent.Feb 18, 2014
Is 60W same as 9W?
A 9W CFL gives out a brightness that's equivalent to a 40W light bulb whereas a 14W CFL already gives out a 60W equivalent.
How many watts is a 60W equivalent LED?
8 Watts
How many lumens is 13 watts?
LED Equivalent for 13 Watt CFL Bulb You can find the 13 watt CFL bulb in the 3rd row of the 4th column. It has a brightness of about 800 lumens.
