How many volts do you need to light up a 15 watts light bulb?
15.
How many volts should I be reading at a fluorescent bulb?
The voltage present on the secondary side of the ballast (transformer) varies as to the type of fluorescent tube or bulb that is in the fixture. The voltage will always be higher that the applied line voltage that supplies the ballast.If the fluorescent bulb screws into a lamp type of fixture, then there is no way to measure the voltage at the bulb as the tube and ballast are a combined sealed unit.
How many lumens in a 32 watt fluorescent?
A 32 watt fluorescent bulb typically produces around 2400-2900 lumens of light output. The exact lumen output can vary depending on the specific type and brand of the fluorescent bulb.
How many atoms of mercury are in a light bulb?
Compact fluorescent light bulbs contain mercury. (For that reason, it is important to be very careful with a broken compact fluorescent bulb, because mercury is highly toxic.) Most other kinds of light bulbs do not contain any significant amount of mercury.
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.
