Yes it's true Purwell, the equivalent size in wattage is written on the packaging but I've been using 'Lumens' recently, which is a better indicator of brightness. When you get used to using them you can choose bulbs perfect every time.

13-18w LED bulb, equivalent to the old 100w incandescent bulb.
I did change it today to a 9-13w, equivalent to the old 75w. Much easier on the eye.
And yes Purwell, I know it gives info on the boxes - good job too, what a nightmare. Gone are the days when you just bought an ordinary bulb, they tested it before you paid for it, and you wandered off happily.
One needs a degree now. All you see are folk scratching their heads with 'happy to help staff' waiting in the background - just to buy a bulb
