With the transition to LED and fluorescent light fixtures comes a change in how we talk about light bulbs.
Old incandescent bulbs were rated on how much power they consumed (watts) instead of their brightness.
Now, with the variety of lighting choices, the product labeling is changing to lumens instead of watts. This is a measure of actual brightness, and allow you to compare the light output of bulbs of different types.
For example, an incandescent 100 watt bulb of produces about 1,600 lumens, which is about the same brightness of LED bulbs in the 14-20 watt range.
