How bright is 1300 Lumen? Is this adequate to replace a 150W incandescent bulb? Right now I have a 50/100/150W floor lamp.

It isn't as bright as your floor lamp. It is bright enough for reading and crafting.

I found it to be very bright, not sure you would want to replace for a floor lamp. The 1300 Lumen light is more for reading, or crafting. Bringing the light to the area where you are working. I use mine mainly for knitting, it gives me added light to see better.

I believe so it is quite bright and had numerous comments on its brightness

According to most conversion charts I've seen, 1600 lumens is roughly equivalent to a 100 watt bulb. However as others have responded, this light does seem brighter to me - part of that may be that it is rated at a Color Temperature 4000 Kelvin which is a fairly bright white (but not quite daylight) fixture. If you remove the diffuser and look at it while it's on, it's extremely bright. Look at it while it's off and it is very geeky nerdy interesting! :)

The info. I got was 500. I have no way of testing it. At 500 or 600 its still super bright. I saw a test where it beat a 800 lumen light.

DLJ, I've been running mine for quite sometime. They replaced 12v 4w incandescent bulbs and here is what I can say about these. The lumens is close to a 4w, the color is slightly cooler but still warm that people can't tell it's LED. The match up very nicely to 20w equivalent LED spotlights I put on the same system. And the beauty, not one bulb has gone out yet, running daily on a dusk timer for. 4, 6, or 8 hours depending on daylight season.

Not unless you want especially dim mood lighting or are planning on using a lot these. It's bright, but not nearly as bright as a 150W incandescent, let alone the fluorescent or MH lamps usually used in gyms.

Warm white - 320 lumens, cool white - 370 lumens. Listed by manufacturer as 50 watt incandescent equivalent. Websites showing lumen to wattage equivalencies vary greatly. Two fairly reputable websites report that 450 lumens equals 40 watts incandescent, while another reports 420 lumens = 40 watts, and a fourth reports 600 lumens = 40 watts. You can believe the manufacturer or ask an expert. BTW... "dimmable", maybe with the right dimmer switch, otherwise not. Color temp for 2,700 kelvin is right on for "warm white" bulbs.

Per the package label image shown, the bulb produced 1300 lumens, which would be equivalent to about a 85-90W incandescent bulb. I wondered, too, so looked it up. Don't know why someone would provide a description with stating this.

The A21 led bulb is equivalent to a 100 watt standard bulb but if you choose the cool bright white then to me it is brighter than a standard bulb that is a higher wattage. also it is dimmable down to 5% for most dimmers. I got one that was equal to 120 watt but the bulb was really big and heavy.

I don't know where you get 50 lumens from. This light is 600 or better lumens and yes very bright for its size. Thank you chris from RI, very good.....Cliff from Ca.

With over 800 lumens, this is a very bright lamp. The brightness is slightly higher than a 60W incandescent, so you can compare to that.

The Cree bulbs at Home Depot are *outstanding* and they throw around 450 lumens. They have 60w A19 equivalents too that throw a lot more than that.

We are using about 5 LED lightbulbs at 40 wts and it is very bright. I chose to use incandescent lights so that it would be softer. I must mention, that with our dining room lights, we can actually control how bright we would like the room. At high, it is very very bright. At a medium setting, it is still bright. Hope that helps.

I like bright rooms too. That's why I bought this fixture that uses 3 bulbs. But I sorry, I don't know how how bright it actually is. I bought it to put into my tenant's living room, so I don't really know. I would think that if you use 3 high wattage bulbs, like 100 watts, it would be pretty bright. 300 watts would be very bright.

I'm sure you can use a 13 watt CFL bulb in this lamp (60 watt standard bulb equivalent). I have a 20 watt CFL (75 watt standard bulb equivalent) in mine and have had no issues. Have to turn switch 2 times to turn on since this is a 3 way 150 watt lamp, but that doesn't bother me any.

Not sure the lumens. I did have two of these bulbs stop working after only a hundred or so hours. Not recommended.

Total lumens is not really relevant since the light is spread over 16 feet. For under cabinet lighting I'd rate this as more of 'accent lighting' than task lighting, although the 600 count strips are quite good!

Not sure about the lumens capacity but it is probably the brightest regular bulb on the market. LEDs may be brighter though.
