How bright are they in comparison to a 40 watt bulb

Since these are in an outside environment, I would say not quite as bright but with a good steady glow to light up an entryway. I have them on either side of a gate entrance and very noticeable driving up.

not as bright as a 40 watt. They provide a nice glow and help highlight the entrance to our property but you would want to do the crossword under them

Probably about the same----The brightness may depend on the way it receives solar rays.

They are pretty bright. They light up where I put them pretty decent. The white isn't true white though. Its not as crystal clear white as a regular light bulb. Hope that helps

A rough "guesstiment" is that 1 watt of LED light is 6 times brighter than 1 watt of incandescent light. So, 6.5 watts on this unit is equal to the brightness of a ~40 watt regular bulb.

Hello, a light bulb is rated not only by watts but also by color 2700k bulb is a light color and a normal white in color if you go with a 6000k it will be very bright. look up lumens per watt that will help you.

It is not super bright. I would guess on the lower end of the lumen rating per watts. I bought them because the light is on all the time.

I don't have any technical information on hand about the comparable brightness, but I can give you my opinion from using these every weekend for shows. At heir brightest, they are easily brighter than the normal 200 W lightbulb, but they can be dimmed smoothly through the range up to that level. They are bright enough that it is wise to avoid looking at them directly. The white color setting appears to be the brightest, so they can be run comfortably at a higher setting when you use a darker color like blue or red. The color setting can also be adjusted to get any variation of color you are looking for. I use eight across the front of my stage, and that is more than enough to light the stage and spotlight performers.

A 40 watt bulb works fine. You can buy regular bulbs almost anywhere like grocery store, hardware, Target, etc.

Hi Kenneth, they do a really good job lighting up my entire back yard. I'm currently utilizing a 65 watt bulb and I'm pretty happy with the amount of brightness. I plan on replacing the bulbs with a 70 watt, when they eventually go out. I'm really happy with the product! I went through two motion lights from Home Depot and they both failed on me in less than a year. You won't be disappointed.

I certainly think so - I'd say they are about equivalent to a 90 watt bulb in brighteness, and produce light that is closer to daylight than incandescent... 4000K and 650 lumens. I'm using 2 in an L shaped hallway with 10' ceilings, and they are actually a bit too bright for the application.

I tried one in my lamp and it worked but was really too dim for my tastes (it was a 40 watt bulb and threw the light of a 25). I picked up a four pack of ordinary 40 watt non-efficient bulbs and they shed plenty of light for my tastes in brightness.

On the directions it says 10 watt But on the piece of the chandelier where the bulb goes in it says 40 watt. I believe 40 is fine. The 10 are way too dim to light a small room even.

I want to say 40 watts per bulb, but I have it on a dimmer an never use that much light.

Approximately 1 watt and they don't burn out. Also, they are at least as bright as the 4 watt if not more.

It is fairly bright I'd estimate 40W or 60W equivalent. The light is not as warm as I was hoping for though. It is more daylight than warm.

Depends on the situation you are using the for. Just darkness...then yes they are bright

These are much brighter compared to LED and OEM bulbs. Putco technician quoted between 50 - 60% brighter.
