Light bulbs are made according to where they will be used and what voltage is generally available for that location. In a house, 120 volts is the standard, so household bulbs are designed to work with 120 volts.
A car however is almost always designed to use 12 volts. Therefore, that needs 12 volts.
There are other more odd applications that require 24 v. ,36 v. , 5 v. etc.
Bottom line, use a bulb that matches what ever it is in and it will light.
Answer #1:
Anywhere from 1 (power saver) to 200 (filament/halogen).
===========================================
Answer #2:
It depends on the bulb and its rating. Household incandescent bulbs go
from 2 watts to 200 watts depending on the design and materials used.
===========================================
Answer #3:
-- Incandescent bulbs are available ranging from 1.19 watts (PR2 flashlight bulb)
to 700 watts (aircraft obstructon lighting beacon).
-- LEDs start at about 0.02 watts.
-- Halogen reflector lamps using 5,000 watts are in regular commercial production.
-- Around 1932, General Electric built a small quantity of 50,000-watt incandescent
bulbs ... enough to establish that they could work, could deliver a reasonable lifetime,
and could be shipped from place to place without breaking.
600-1100 watts
I've some 3volt bulbs that are rated at 80 mA, which means it uses draws 2.4 Watts.
There are also small 7 watt 120v bulbs, usually used in night lights.
The maximum load you can put on a 15A 120v circuit, without blowing a circuit breaker or fuse would be 1800 watts.
The power rating of the bulb indicates how much power it uses. The power in watts indicates how much energy in Joules the bulb uses in one second.
A bulb should have its voltage and power printed on it.
It should be written on its box, and likely on the bulb (the globe or collar) as well. Not all bulbs have the same power (watts).
That depends on what type of lightbulb, what size of lightbulb, etc.
You will find the wattage of individual bulbs printed on the bottom end of the glass globe.
60 is a standard house bulb; 40 for a dull one, 100 for a bright one

How many amps are required for 100W light bulb operate on 110 volts?
amps equals watts divided by volts.
How many amps are needed to run a light bulb?
If you divide the watts of the bulb by the supply voltage, that is the current. For example a 60 w bulb on a 240 v supply gives a current of 60/240 which is ¼ amp.
How many light bulbs can 650 volts light?
As many as you want. But where do you find 640 volts RMS?
Could batteries light a light bulb?
Yes, even a potato can light a light bulb. Yes. If the batteries match the voltage of the bulb, they can light it. Flashlights have bulbs and batteries that power them. If you mean a household light bulb, then you'd need many batteries in series (80 of the 1.5 volt batteries).
How many light bulbs can a 6 volt battery light up?
If the type of light bulb you are using was made to run on 1.5 volts, a 1.5 volt battery should be able to light up one or several of those types if they are each wired in parallel directly across the 1.5 volt battery.If the type of light bulb you are using was made to run on 0.75 volts, a 1.5 volt battery will light up two or more of those types if they are wired in pairs in series across the battery.If the type of light bulb you are using was made to run on, say, 3.0 volts, a 1.5 volt battery will not light it up very much - it may just glow dimly.If the type of light bulb you are using was made to run on any voltage higher than, let's say 5 volts - for instance a standard 120 volt household bulb - then your 1.5 volt battery will not be able to light one of those up at all.Another answerYou can wire any number of 1.5v bulbs in parallel, but for each one you add you will draw more current. Draw too much current and the battery will get hot and may explode, depending on what it is made of.How long the battery will be able to keep the light bulbs lit will depend on the size of the battery, meaning how much charge it can hold. (Its capacity in amp.hours.)
How many volts are in anonion to power a light bulb?
Onions don't have volts.
How many volts in a 60 Watt light bulb?
If a light bulb is rated at 60 Watts, the voltage will depend on the specific type of bulb. For a typical incandescent bulb, the voltage would be around 120 volts. However, for an LED or CFL bulb, the voltage could be different, such as 120 volts or 240 volts.
When using a 9 volt battery on a closed circuit with 2 light bulbs how many volts are used to light each bulb?
Each light bulb will receive the full 9 volts from the battery in a series circuit, so each bulb will be operating on 9 volts.
How many volts do you need to light up a 15 watts light bulb?
15.
How many volts does a fluorescent light bulb need?
A fluorescent light bulb typically operates on a voltage range of 100-277 volts, depending on the specific model and design. The most common standard voltage for residential use in the United States is 120 volts.
What kind of light bulb will be lit by 5 volts?
Um, a 5 volt light bulb?
How many amps are required for 100W light bulb operate on 110 volts?
amps equals watts divided by volts.
If a light bulb is connected between 2 wires and both wires have 300 volts of electrical energy is the light bulb lit?
A light bulb connected between to wires, each having 300 volts to ground that are in phase, will not light, because there is no differential voltage available to do any work. If each wire has 300 volts to ground and are out of phase (600 volts between them) the light bulb will be lit, if it is rated at least for 600 volts, otherwise it will burn out.
How many ampere is the 63 auto light bulb?
.63 ampere draw @ 7 volts
How many volts does it take to power a big light bulb?
A typical big light bulb, like an incandescent bulb, usually requires around 120 volts to operate. However, it's always best to check the specific voltage requirements listed on the bulb itself or its packaging to ensure safe and proper operation.
How many amps does a 65 watt light bulb have at 120 volts?
To calculate the amperage, you can use the formula: Amps = Watts/Volts. For a 65-watt light bulb at 120 volts, the amperage would be 0.54 amps.
How many amps are needed to run a light bulb?
If you divide the watts of the bulb by the supply voltage, that is the current. For example a 60 w bulb on a 240 v supply gives a current of 60/240 which is ¼ amp.
