How do you determine the amps for a halogen lamp?
To determine the amps for a halogen lamp, divide the wattage of the lamp by the voltage it operates on. The formula is: Amps = Watts / Volts. This will give you the amperage required for the halogen lamp.
Can a 100 watt bulb be substituted for a 3-way bulb?
Yes, you can use a regular bulb in a 3-way lamp. You won't get the 3-way effect though, the regular bulb will just turn on and off.
What size of led lamp will be equivalent to 150 Watt halogen lamp?
LEDs and CFLs use about a quarter of a halogen so the answer is 35-40 watts.
How does a self ballasted bulb screw into a regular lamp?
You should be able to use a self ballasted lamp in a regular socket safely as long as you do not exceed the wattage recommendations of the fixture. Self Ballasted simply means that the electronics to drive the flourescent bulb are all contained withing the packaging of the lamp. I hope this cleared up the question. Ben M.

How much energy does a tungsten halogen bulb use?
Halogen bulbs come in various ratings, as do all bulbs.
What is a halogen microwave?
There is no halogen microwave. There is a halogen microwave oven bulb. (The technical term for a "bulb" is a lamp.) Some microwave ovens use a halogen lamp to light up the oven cavity. Replacing them is similar to replacing a "regular" incandescent lamp, except that when halogen lamps are being replaced, it is critical not to touch the lamp with bare fingers. Leaving skin oils on a halogen lamp shortens the lamp life and can set up a dangerous situation where the lamp might overheat.
Which kind a light bulb uses the least amount of energy a fluorescent lamp a halogen lamp a incandescent lamp or a heating lamp?
Fluorescent lights use far less energy than any of the others listed.

Can you use a 50 watt halogen bulb for a 100 watt halogen bulb?
Yes. It just won't be as bright.

LEDs and CFLs use about a quarter of a halogen so the answer is 35-40 watts.
Can you use a 120 volt halogen bulb in place of a 110 volt halogen bulb?
Yes, the two voltages are in the same range category.
What is the type of lamp uses with dimmer switch?
You cannot use most fluorescent lights with a dimmer. Just about any incandescent bulb WILL work with a dimmer. Occasionally, when a halogen bulb burns out, it will destroy a dimmer switch but halogen bulbs are considered incandescent and other than that little problem they work well with a dimmer.

Can you use a 12 volt LED light bulb in a 120 volt light bulb socket?
Yes, as long as it has a filament for producing light for example a Tungsten Halogen Lamp, normal Incandescent or GLS lamp. If the lamp is rated at 12v it will run on either 12vac or 12vdc.
What kind of headlight bulb does a Honda rancher use?
Halogen.
What is the difference between a metal halide lamp and a halogen lamp?
Metal halide lamps produce light by discharging an arc through a mixture of gases and metal halides, resulting in a brighter and more efficient light output compared to halogen lamps. Halogen lamps use a tungsten filament surrounded by halogen gas to produce light, giving off a warmer color temperature and often used in applications where color rendition is important.
