what kind of wattage do these blubs put out? I want it for a light in the back yard.

I don't know the exact wattage, but it's low--about like a night light. These bulbs look exactly like a flickering candle so higher wattage would ruin the effect. I used them very successfully in a Medieval stage setting for Vacation Bible School.

these are not strong enough to light you back yard, however if you are looking for ambiance, they are perfect.

These bulbs have very low power and placed outside will have little effect.

Probably about 20-40 watts. They aren't that bright, about what you'd expect from a candle.

Just enough to light themselves not suitable for illumination of any surrounding area.

I would say yes, they give a nice light, better than the rather yellow CFL versions. I would have said it was more like 50W rather than a 40W equivalent. A nice light

I agree with your first answer. I used the bulbs in my outdoor low voltage lighting. It's a warm bright white light without any of the concerns you expressed. The 5 watts rating is a cost saving and the consistent brightness of all the lights is great.

Approximately 1 watt and they don't burn out. Also, they are at least as bright as the 4 watt if not more.

That is 100 watts per socket. But since 100 incandescent are extinct, I've been using 60's and it looks very nice. Now they're going extinct too. I hate CFLs. Poisonous Mercury in them.

I don't know the wattage, but I can tell you that I have it in a very sunny area and it still doesn't let off very much light.

No expert here but have used in several locations.. they are smaller and work w/ a clip on shade on my small desk light.. can measure it but the say equal to 100 watt conventional bulb.. I would say equal to a 60 watt.. but do save energy so am happy with them..

up to 100W. I have a 60W bulb in it, and that's about bright enough for me.

I'm no bulb expert but, I would assume a 75 watt outdoor bulb would be good. Ask someone at your local hardware store. I'm sure you can find one for under $10.

I don't know. But I put installed the lights in my front flower beds a year ago, and last evening as I was walking up my walk, I was again amazed at how much light they put out for the piddly amount of wattage they use. I wouldn't have believed it.

It probably depends on the LEDs. I'm using EcoSmart 6 in. 9.5-Watt (65W) Soft White (2700K) LED Downlights with the CREE LEDs, and they're great; extremely dimmable and very steady output.

Hi - I ordered this a few weeks ago to plug into a brand new outdoor light fixture I purchased at Lowes, so I could insert a regular incandescent 25 watt lightbulb, and that size sounds about right. I can go home and measure it tonight and get back with you. Karen

Sorry do not know the wattage but they are plenty Brite. street signs glow do to the high intensity of these lights. they do cause static on my radio.

They are 5 watt from the description on the box. I use them in my nightlights, and they are sufficient. Hope this helps with your decision.

I simply replaced almost identical fixtures already in my yard. Spacing is on the order of 10-15' between them in my small yard. If I recall correctly bulbs are up to 100W but I used CFLs so the wattage is much lower. They accept bulbs with a standard "Edison Screw" base which I believe in the US is E26.

I but & use regular nite light 4watt light bulbs. Nothing fancy. Just the clear ones.

You can use up to 100 watt but I use 75. These are beautiful lights and they look great outdoors. I have been so happy with them at the front door and around the garage door. I thought the price was great but they look very expensive. Very glad I found them.
