?What is thecomparison to a 100 watt incandescent bulb?

it's somewhat difficult to be precise in such a comparison, but the "color" is more white (more like a fluorescent lamp), and the amount of light is probably somewhere between a typical 75W and 100W incandescent. I ended up getting two, partly because I had the flexibility since I was doing the wiring, and partly because I needed more than one to make the 15 x 13 ft room as bright as I wanted.

brighter and whiter...put this in my garage to replace a two 60W bulb fixture...comparable to fluorescent fixture.

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! :)

This is much brighter. My wife says it's a bit harsh but that was right at first. Now she likes how much light it puts out.

This bulb is nearly identical to the standard old 100 watt light bulb. It works well with motion in low light conditions.

There is no direct conversion from incandescent (traditional) lights to LED lights in watts. The 100W incandescent bulb produced 1600 lumens, so you would need a 1600 lumen LED light. That could vary between 6w and 20w depending efficiency of the LED light.

I have a cluster of three over my counter and am using the CFL 13 watt (60 watt equiv) bulbs. My niece saw them and said "Wow they're bright!" I haven't tried the 100 watt bulbs they're rated for, but can only imagine.

Not 400 W incandescent! However, an LED or CFL bulb with an *equivalent luminance of 400W* is probably OK.

This bulb is the same as a incandescent flood lamp with a uniformly wide output. I think it's the equivalent of a 75 or 100 watt flood light.

I forgot to add, you can go to LUMAcoil.com site, and there you will see that their 26 watt bulb is equivalent to a 100 watt incandescent bulb.Hope this helps.

A 100 watt incandescent bulb puts out about 1600 lumens. This light is rated at 1400 lumens. It appears brighter in my opinion due to the way the LEDs are spread out. Appears to light a larger area more uniformly.

Incandescent bulb. Is written on each pack 60,100. Watts is standard, the watt measurement is a standard measurement divide it by the voltage to get the amperage, but it's the lumans that determen the value of the bulb 100 watt bulb equals 26 lumans check out the Luman out put of the led

It's not about the physical size, but it's the power that you need to watch out for: 150-Watt LED and CFL/600-Watt Incandescent. Most light bulb now days would not exceed 100 Watt.

The bulb's diameter is 3.75 inches and the height is 5 inches. The light output is great. I will replace other incandescent 100-watt bulbs with these.

Mary, There is a warning attached where you insert the bulb that says, "Do not exceed 100 watts". JIM

My fixture is labeled for up to 100 watt bulb. Standard base. I have been using a 40 watt standard base incandescent bulb for accent lighting. This size bulb fits with very little space between the bulb and the back of the fixture if you were thinking to use any bulb that might be larger than the old standard incandescent ones.

This is a replacement for an 1142, Double contact. I believe the 1004 is a single contact, but I could be wrong.The Kelvin level of this bulb is much higher than the 1142 incandescence, which is more yellow, and more pleasing.I find the Kelvin level uncomfortable for major lighting areas, but use it in utilities areas where the "on" time is very short.Also, the output in candle power seems to be less than an 1142.Good luck

It looks to be the equivalent of about a 10watt incandescent bulb. I bought 2 for my application to span the area that I wanted to light. I'm 100% satisfied after having these in use for months.

The box says you can use a 100W bulb.I use a 60w cree led dimmable bulb in two of them.Just make sure it's dimmable or regular and not a three way.

Type A bulb; 3-way up to 100 watts. I did decide to keep lamps but purchased a lighter color shade.
