[QUOTE="Federico-Nov, post: 531395, member: 41442"] [b]Light Bulb - How to Pick the right one[/b] I’m an a**ho** I bought in USA a Limostudio Kit like this: [URL="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B017A9NJ8I?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=ox_sc_sfl_title_11&smid=APGNKGIBL58YH"]Amazon.com : LimoStudio 6 x9 ft White / Black / Green Chromakey Fabricated Backdrop Muslin Background Screen Umbrella Lighting Kit for Photo Video Photography Studio, CLR-PL13WBG : Camera & Photo[/URL] That use 3 x [B]85W Digital Full Spectrum CFL Light Bulb like this: [B][URL]https://db.tt/6lIHF665[/URL][/B] [/B] I check on the socket and it was for 110V to 250v and I assumed that the light bulb could work at 220V as well. I plug it and after few minutes, bye bye light bulb. Of course it was for 120V. Well, now I’m checking for replacement. The description of thelight bulbs is the following: - Color Temperature: 6500K - Watts: 85W - Equals to 350W Regular Incandescent Light Bulb Output - Long Life: 8,000 hrs I search info to understand what this “full spectrum” is, but it looks like that is a “marketing definition”. In Argentina I found this: [URL="http://articulo.mercadolibre.com.ar/MLA-603005339-lampara-bajo-consumo-85w-e40-8000-hs-_JM"]Lampara Bajo Consumo 85w E40 8000 Hs - $ 337,00 en MercadoLibre[/URL] It just says that is 85W / 8000 hrs and has cold or warm light… I would say that is the same. What do you think? Anyway, considering that I have to replace one, do you suggest me to buy other kind of light bulb? Thank you!!! [/QUOTE]
