I was so darn skeptical of the necessity of this video!!! 🤦🏽‍♀️ Thank you ma’am and Lowe’s. I always thought I had to stick to the ultra bright LEDs. So glad you explained “Lumens” !! Kudos!! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Hi.

[@swat486]

Does size matter ?

[@p.macolli3201]

😳

[@brianwarner308]

she said it does...

[@lowes]

Size is important when considering the base and shape - The most common is the E26 base in screw-on home light bulbs regardless of what technology (Incandescent, LED, Fluorescent, etc.) they are. Lights shapes are usually a combination or shape and size and the most common shape is known as an A-Lamp (or A-Line). Hope that helps!

wait a minute .. "the average household can save $225.00 a year" bs i have not, nor do i know of anybody spending that much on light bulbs in a decade..... just make up #'s..... sad

[@religiohominilupus5259]

They're not talking about how much you'll save on the purchase of light bulbs. It's about your electric bill. You will save quite a bit by using LEDs.

[@SoCalGambler]

We swapped out all our bulbs for LEDs. Looking at our electrical bill, we are currently trending about $15- $20 less a month over the previous 12 months.

[@religiohominilupus5259]

This was great information. With the changeover to LED bulbs, understanding what I’m looking for instead of Wattage was very helpful. Caroline@lunchbreakdiy did a great job!

[@ovidiuciuparu6421]

So how many lumens was a 60w old bulb?

[@lowes]

Thanks for your question. A 60w older incandescent bulb will be approx. 800 lumens; therefore, to replace a 60-watt incandescent bulb with a LED bulb of the same brightness, one should purchase a LED bulb that also gives 800 lumens. Hope that helps!!
