Can I use a sophisticated wattage lighbulb contained by a key 60 watt fixture?

Im using a 60 watt halogen in a 120 volt fixture. I have need of really bright light to study and even though the halogen is pretty moral, I would like something brighter while studying.

Can I use a 70 or 75 watt halogen or full spectrum bulb or will this burn out the fixture/possibly incentive fire? Also, what exactly is the difference between halogen and full spectrum? Arent they both used to mimic sunlight (and help beside depression)? So whats the difference?


Answers:    Heat!!!! That is what the problem is. A fixture designed to work on a 60w Max bulb allows so much heat to undamagingly work. By adding a larger wattage you also increase the warmness inside the fixture and could cause a fire. The best answer is probably gain another lamp or one designed for a halogen bulb to use while you study. Think of spectrum as a rainbow, the colors of the rainbow are in fact the different colors of light given sour at different light side. Some bulbs give past its sell-by date more blues than reds, A halogen or full spectrum lights give bad all the colors, ( mimicing the sun) Some bulbs pass off the lower expire or reddish. Get a nice halogen storm lantern and study like hell. If you want you can turn online and Google light top and get a better notion how light side work. Good luck with your studies
it could take too hot and cause a fire, receive a second lamp
