This is causing some confusion on these "plasma" lights. This is the first time I have seen where this 14 watt bulb says it takes this much amperage to function. With most LEDs, they usually take less amperage for them to work. For instance, you buy a standard Light bulb that is 60W. Then you buy a 60W equivalent LED bulb that consumes 13 watts.
So does this "Plasma" bulb consume 14W but puts out light like a 60 watt bulb? I did read that there was some advisory that a person may have to change their fuse to 15W to use these bulbs. Im wondering if the information is a bit backwards. Its a 14W equivalent, but really only uses 6W? That is where Im confused on. Almost always, LED's consume less energy then an incandescent.
When you go back and read about this bulb in the Cougar store
http://www2.cougarpartscatalog.com/plasma2.html , It says it uses 8 watts, then it talks about a bulb that looks just like it sold on Ebay made in China that is not as bright etc. So the one sold on Amazon may or may not be the same.
