I got a lamp that listed out the limitation of the watt as Max 60W E27 (Max 60W Incan ~ Max 42W Halo ~ MAX 10W LED). At the beginning I only think that max watts of the lamp is 60W then I purchased and used a fluorescent Philips bulb at 32W for more than 6 months. Now I want to change to the higher lumen bulb and notice about the warning “Max 60W Incan ~ Max 42W Halo ~ MAX 10W LED”. I am not quite sure is that possible for me to use a LED bulb at 18W or as long as I am not exceed the 60W limitation OR I have to follow their warning like LED bulb has to be 10W? Thanks

Simply said, 60W is maximum heat that lamp can hold (dissipate). Anything less than that, you are good. I don’t see a reason of printing LED equivalent, except for you to know when you go to buy it (so lighting is similar).
