Well I was LED to believe that fluros emit light in the  blue spectrum, and 
incandescants emit light in the red spectrum.But that is only what I read in a 
magazine, light reading material.( no humour here either I checked)

  Direct from the OSRAM website

  Longlife CFL

  Globe 40w = 7w CFL
  Globe 60w = 11w CFL
  Globe 75w = 15w CFL
  Globe 100w = 20w CFL
  Globe 120w = 23w CFL

  Now from me

  As for a lux or candella comparison its been done for you in the above list 
(very roughly ) but i dont think , its that easy to spit out a formula , from 
what i rember lux will change with the different light colors emmitted from the 
source. 

  It also depends what type of fluro tube you choose as some target different 
emitted light ranges for different applications, most CFL's in your local 
supermarket are very low orange band crap, if you want nice white bright light 
out of CFL's prepare to spend some money !

    Just going back to the incandescent versus "CFL" here... - Am I wrong here, 
or did nobody mention the word 
    "Lux" in that whole thread? Can anyone tell me the relationship between CFL 
and Incandescent light bulbs versus watts equals Lux? 

    In other words, for power input, how much light power (Lux) do you actually 
get? I also noticed a colour difference... Ironic for a colour blind lad :)

    Ying tong!
