If it's a long, STRAIGHT bulb...grasp with both hands - one at each end of bulb, and gently TWIST bulb toward you until it comes free of lamp. Replace by gently TWISTING new bulb back in - but in the opposite direction (counter or clock wise). If the bulb is ROUND....simply unscrew it by gently turning counter clock-wise.

There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?

give the tubes a quarter turn so you see the pin on the bottom end of the tubes and gently pull down

What is the minimum watt of a light bulb 30 40 50 60 or 70 watt for night reading?

40 watts. I did an experiment on this. Go do one and see for yourself. Sheesh. -_-


Are halogen bulbs more energy efficient than traditional incandescent bulbs?

Well, if they're both 40 watt bulbs they use the same amount of electricity. But incandescent bulbs produce a lot of heat as well as light. Fluorescent bulbs don't produce (much) heat, so they can use their power to produce light. So you can use fluorescent bulbs of lower wattage to produce the same amount of light.So for the same amount of light, fluorescent bulbs use less electricity than incandescent bulbs.


How many lumens in 40 watt fluorescent tube bulb?

There is no fixed relationship between the brightness (lumens / candela) of a light source, and its power consumption (watts). Incandescent bulbs have a low luminous output for their power consumption, Compact Fluorescent Lamps are intermediate, and LED's are the most efficient in today's world.


How do you describe what amps is?

Amps ain't nothing really until you cut on a light switch in your house. It's a term of electricity measurement of which is being used in a circuit. Say you have an unlit 50 watt light bulb in your den plugged into the 110 volt outlet. The 110 volts is there ready to operate the lamp. Cut it on and the electron flow is called current. Replace the bulb with a 100 watt bulb and the current flow will double. Cut off all the lights and the power meter on your house will run slower and you use less current and will have a lower electric bill next month.


If a bulb has 50 Hz frequency and it is apply at 60 Hz frequency voltage supply then it is glow or not?

If a bulb has 50 Hz frequency and it's supply is 60 Hz frequency, it will still glow, despite the allowance of 10 HZ frequency.
