I suspect you mean a 24 volt 250 watt bulb running on a 12 volt supply.

If so, it will burn with a dull orange color. The exact color is uncertain, as the filament of an incandescent bulb is usually made of Tungsten, which has a high positive thermal coeficient of resistance. What that means is that as it gets brighter (hotter) the resistance increases drastically. It is however certain that it will burn cooler than it would on a 24 volt supply.

If you make the opposite change, a 12 volt bulb on a 24 volt supply, it will burn out with a very bright flash.

Why 100w bulb appears brighter than 40w bulb placed at same distance?

The 100W bulb emits more light energy per second than the 40W bulb, so it appears brighter due to the higher intensity of light. This increase in brightness is a result of the higher power consumption and light output of the 100W bulb compared to the 40W bulb.


How big a solar panel is needed to light a 100W bulb?

One 25w solar panel for one 100w bulb. A 100-watt solar panel can produce about 400 watthours of power per day. A typical home consumes about 25,000 watthours per day. So you would need 62 one-hundred watt solar panels to run an average home.

How much electricity use a light bulb -100W- in moment when you TURN ON the light switch?

Less than 0.02 watt/hours. Running your 100w bulb for an hour uses 100 watt/hours. The inrush current during the cold resistance of the bulb lasts for only a millisecond before the bulb is hot. This is insignificant on your electric bill even if you sat and flicked the lightswitch for the whole month, and is a common misconception that someone who didn't know what they were talking about made up.


What does the reading 100W-220V on an electric bulb indicate?

The reading "100W-220V" on an electric bulb indicates that it is a 100-watt bulb designed to be used with a voltage of 220 volts. This information helps ensure that the bulb is used with the correct power supply to operate efficiently and safely.
