Energy saver bulbs and lampshade "max"
HI
I've recently purchased some Osram "Energy Saver" bulbs. On the box they have 15W = 75W by which I interpret that they use 15 watts but give out the amount of light we associate with traditional bulbs rated at 75 watts. I have some lampshades which are labelled to only take bulbs up to a maximum of 60W. Is it okay to use the "75W" but really 15W energy saver bulbs in these lampshades? Thank you -- Patrick Brighton, UK http://www.patrickjames.me.uk |
