Even then, where the hell did they get a 60W LED? LEDs with those kinds of power ratings are pretty hard to find, and they're going to be fairly expensive as well.

What's worse is having dimmable bulbs. A dimmer is required to have the maximum wattage of 120 W or so because there will always be some idiot who decides to put an incandescent bulb in and risks burning the house down.

We could have dimmers a tenth of their size if people stopped being idiots. Instead we need to deal with those massive 4x4x4cm boxes that can't be fitted into many walls.

If it's led 200w equivalent then it's fine.

Those max ratings are for incandescent bulbs

Maybe, but the light only turns on when it's open, and when it's open you have bigger cooling issues than the bulb wattage

Probably yeah.

(am gonna use European standards here sorry Ameribruvs.)

Also, 200w bulbs that fit into fridge socket? The "40w max" is usually in normal E27 sockets. (The regular light bulb socket.) And the largest lamps for those I've seen are around 50-80w, and pretty much always sold as "growlamps".

Going to 200w you'd need an E40 socket. They're about twice the size of the "regular" E27 (and E14 is the smaller "candle" socket, that's like half the diameter of the regular one). Here's what a 200w bulb looks like and remember that the socket is twice the size of a regular one. That bulb is like ~40cm long.

Idk what socket fridges use though, but I seriously doubt it's anything close to an E40 size.

It's probably a 25w led though I wouldn't have thought they would fit in a fridge

It lasts a few days longer because I can’t finish 18 slices of bread in 4 days.

I do sometimes actually. I live alone and don't use a ton of bread, so keeping it in the fridge keeps it from molding quickly.

When I still lived with my parents, they kept bread in a room temperature and we quite often had to toss away moldy ones. When I moved on my own I started keeping it in the fridge and I don't think I've had mold once. I toast it virtually every time anyway so doesn't really matter. Also it's dark rye bread which probably keeps differently than one made from while flour

South Louisiana. I put my bread in freezer during the summer or it will be moldy in two days.

You only mean fridge right, not freezer?

I'm really hoping they're just going by what they see on the packaging at Walmart where lightbulb wattage is shown as an equivalent measurement for lumens and that it's not the actual power consumption. Fridge lightbulbs should not take as much power to run as an AC unit.

Pretty sure this is just a story and an overexposed or edited photo.

200 lumens isn't really that bright. I'm still not quite sure what the hell one lumen is based on but it's not a particularly bright thing.

What OP appears to have there is a "Night Sun" light normally fitted to police helicopters and search and rescue craft.

Yes that's what it said at the bottom of the image.

Probably an led 200w "equivalent". I feel like it would have already burned out otherwise.

You should check out some higher wattage ones, I’ve seen up to 300
