I had a few of these LED PAR30 bulbs in my hand a week ago. The prices
were outrageous and the lumen output was so pathetic I would have to
install triple the fixtures to be able to watch TV with them on. IIRC
the largest was 11 Watts and put out about 530 lumens??? Compare this to
a 23 Watt CFL (Not PAR30) putting out 1200 lumens.


11 watts gives 530 lumens versus 23 watts gives 1200? Do the math,
dopey. Sounds like DOUBLE the fixtures would give you 22 watts and 1060
lumens with the particular LED's you are whining about.

Just how do your extraordinary skills with higher mathematics show that
double the fixtures provide enough light if he thinks he needs a minimum
of 1200 lumens?
