    I was so darn skeptical of the necessity of this video!!! 🤦🏽‍♀️ Thank you ma’am and Lowe’s. I always thought I had to stick to the ultra bright LEDs. So glad you explained “Lumens” !! Kudos!! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

    If my lighting fixture can only take a 60 watt bulb but I want brightness in the room, how do I achieve that? I don't really like the sterile/florescent feeling that the daylight bulbs give off. Is there an LED bulb that is bright white with more lumens that doesn't exceed 60 watts?

      Size is important when considering the base and shape - The most common is the E26 base in screw-on home light bulbs regardless of what technology (Incandescent, LED, Fluorescent, etc.) they are. Lights shapes are usually a combination or shape and size and the most common shape is known as an A-Lamp (or A-Line). Hope that helps!

    This was great information. With the changeover to LED bulbs, understanding what I’m looking for instead of Wattage was very helpful. Caroline@lunchbreakdiy did a great job!

      They're not talking about how much you'll save on the purchase of light bulbs. It's about your electric bill. You will save quite a bit by using LEDs.

    • @SoCalGambler
      @SoCalGambler Рік тому +6

      We swapped out all our bulbs for LEDs. Looking at our electrical bill, we are currently trending about $15- $20 less a month over the previous 12 months.

    So how many lumens was a 60w old bulb?

    • @lowes
      @lowes  Рік тому +4

      Thanks for your question. A 60w older incandescent bulb will be approx. 800 lumens; therefore, to replace a 60-watt incandescent bulb with a LED bulb of the same brightness, one should purchase a LED bulb that also gives 800 lumens. Hope that helps!!
