Does anyone know how many watts this lamp draws?

The 5 watts is about .4 amps or 400 milliamps. I have dimmer LED's in my RV and they run .2 amps. I'd rather use more of the less powerful bulbs, to get more even lighting.

dont know but its very little.i hooked mine up to my deep cycle battery overnight with my digital meter also hooked up and didnt drop any volts, not even a tenth of a volt.

Honestly, I don't know. They are adequate to my needs. Perhaps you can get the exact wattages from the tech info for the lamp.

The socket flares upward and it accepts the standard sized bulb, the ones with the base of the same shape and size as good old regular 60W incandescents. But the lamp itself is wired for 13 watts, and the LIFX says that it can draw up to 17 watts. I hesitate to suggest overclocking the lamp by 17 when it's built for 13. IKEA, if they're prudent, built their lamp to cope with a bit of overclocking, but...the prudent consumer doesn't absolutely rely on this.

Hello, I just bought a standard 40 watt bulb. It says you can use 40 watts or less on the inside of the lamp. Hope this helps :).

As stated by others the number of AMPs this lamp draws is minimal.Based on the volt and watt specs from the box I estimated the Lamp draws about 0.26AMPS.As a reference a 922 12.5 watt incandescent bulb draws about 0.98AMPs.

According to my kill-a-watt, it is drawing 24 watts. Only measured for a minute or so.

I think the lamp is rated for 190 watts. Therefore, please be aware of fire danger.

That I don't know. That tube was specific for the lamp I had, which I do not have anymore. I also can't say about the wattage. Sorry I can not be more help.

Hi, Penny,I'm just using the bulb that came with the lamp...don't even know the wattage. It's an incandescent bulb that's usually used in aquariums. I'm "old school," and prefer incandescents to the new bulbs. Take care.Tony

The lamp is halogen (lamp type determines the conversion ratio) . So, the conversion is approximately 20 lumens per watt. I don't remember the exact wattage of the lamp it came with. It is probably 190 watts (you may check it in the instructions it came with). It is, therefore, about 3800 lumens.

Not sure of actual watts . It is a standard cord ( like on a lamp) I hope this helps.

Let me add, you can go to hisgadget.com, call them and ask for the the number for their tech support for oxyled lamps. Then call that guy and ask him your question. It is possible they may have tested it or have a more scientific estimate based on battery capacity and power consumption. If you get to the right person they actually know their stuff.

This bulb consumes sixty watts of energy and the light output is about the equivalent of a three hundred watt incandescent light bulb. In other words you get a lot of light for 60 watts of energy input. Or putting it another way, this bulb draws about a little more than half an amp of current. I have been pretty happy and so has my plant with this bulb. Hope that this answers your question.........Josef

someone else answered that the manufacturers spec says 660w. I use a 250w heat lamp in mine without real issue. what I take issue with is the switch mechanism. it does not hold up the way the fixture does as it is made of cheap plastic and does not seem to be replaceable in itself. my last fixture I used for about a year and a half without a switch, just loosening or tightening the bulb to turn on/off.

I gave to my granddaughter and I do not remember. I thought it was a 4 watt bulb. I will ask and repost.

The lamp requires 40 watts or less for each of the three light bulbs. I find the amount of light to be more than adequate, and I sometimes only turn on one or two bulbs at a time -- but usually all three. I am very pleased with the lamp.
