Hi Bob and all,
Adding to what I wrote previously both you and Terry are making an unfair
comparison. You can't go by what you see alone, your eyes are lying to
you. Remenber the F scale and lumens output, don't overlook the spectrum
either. There's a big difference between white, cool white and daylight
when you look at the Kelvin chart so wattage has far less to do with it
than average light output and the spectrum. Wiki will fill you in, they
have an excellent article complete with charts that will explain all and
give you an excellent idea what to look for on the package when you buy
lamps of any kind. The long and short of it is you must choose the lamp
for the job you expect it to do and ignore those wattage comparisons,
pure rubbish.
