Philips to Launch 23-watt LED Bulb to Replace 100-watt Incandescent

Philips is to launch a 23-watt LED bulb as bright as a 100-watt incandescent lamp this fall.


The company will add to its EnduraLED line with a lamp that gives off almost 1,700 lumens, or about the amount of light as a 100-watt incandescent, and consumes 23 watts. The price isn’t disclosed but it is expected to be in the $40 to $50 range.

This latest EnduraLED has a color temperature is a warm yellow at 2,700 Kelvin, is dimmable, and has a color rendering index of 80. The existing EnduraLED bulbs are rated to last nearly 23 years based on three hours of use a day.

This 23-watt Philips LED bulb follows the introduction last month of its LPrize LED. The LPrize LED operates at 96 lumens per watt, compared with about 74 lumens per watt for the 100-watt equivalent EnduraLED. The CRI at 93, is substantially higher than the EnduraLEDs, too.  Its suggested retail price is $60 but Philips is offering a $10 rebate to make it available for $50. Utility rebates for buying efficient products can bring costs lower, too.
