What is the difference between the G50 bulbs and the G30 bulbs - size or wattage?

Size, G30 bulbs are the smallest size and are 30 mm (1.25 inches) in diameter. G40 bulbs are the middle size, measuring 40 mm (1.5 inches) in diameter. G50 are the largest of the three sizes and they're 50 mm (2 inches) in diameter. (Info from partylights.com)

...Our G30, 5-watt/130V bulb measures 1-7/8" long and 1.25" and will fit a C7/E12 candelabra base. The slightly larger G50, 7-watt/130V bulb measures 2-7/8" tall and 2.0" and will fit a C9/E17 intermediate base . Replace the old retro fit incandescent bulbs in your light lines with these dazzling round lights and enjoy the radiant glow!...http://www.noveltylights.com/G30-G50-Globe-Bulbs/

The G50 bulbs are a mid size light socket with 7 watts per bulb (larger bulb). The G30 is a smaller bulb with 3 watts. I prefer the G50 size and the amount of light it produces. You will have to order replacement bulbs through Novelity however, I have not found any of this size bulb at the local lowes/ Home Depot. Reg

I don't really know the actual size of the G4 type 12vdc bulb. it was just the normal G4 type in my 2011 Keystone travel trailer. I replaced all of them with this bulb and am quite happy.

This is the circular, 9inch, 30 watt bulb. Think its a T9 if I remember correctly (or maybe a T8).

They are the same size as a regular 60 Watt bulb. They are a bit heavier. I have the same setup in my kid's room. They worked fine.

Im not actually sure, I wana say there 30/30 but they are definitely worth getting either way. They look great on with my HID's. They put out a good amount of light as Day time running lights.

Low voltage (12V), 10 watt G4 halogen bulbs came with these fixtures. These were immediately replaced with Tower Type G4 Lamp with 9 High-Power Warm White 5050SMD LEDs 12 V 1.8W 360° Omni-Directional lamps

The power draw for the G8LED G8-450 is 280 Watts, meaning that with only 280W of power consumption this G8 light has the same growing power of a 800W HID sytem with only 35% of the power consumption. The wasted energy in HIDs is mostly given off as excess heat.

i do not think mine are 30 watts. my white strobe lights are 30 watts and they are brighter than my blue lights.

The BR30's are "down lights", typically installed in can-style ceiling lights. These lights direct the light emitted in a more narrow cone, whereas the "original" non-BR30 lights are designed to scatter light as widely as possible, like a normal bulb you would put in a ceiling fan or a lamp. Aside from the above, they a functionally the same in regards to their "smart" features. Both bulbs' starter packs require use of an included hub that is wired directly into the users network, both bulbs act as repeaters to bulbs that might be too far from the hub, and both are compatible with the app and the IFTTT service for automation.

The box says the BR30 bulb has a diameter of 3.75", whereas the BR40 has a diameter of 5". The BR30 is also shorter in overall length. In other words, it is a smaller sized bulb. Socket size is the same.

I saw a Dimmable LED 3.5 Watt G4 Light Bulb on http://www.lampsplus.com/ , but have not tested it yet. Amazon also seems to carry a good number of LED G4's but hard to tell if they will fit through the lily-pad openings. Still have plenty of old halogen lights laying around.

Pretty hard for me to measure because it is intalled up high in my ceiling but it was a drop-in replacement for a GE EXN 50W 12 Volt bulb. I noted no size difference when I did the job. Hope this helps.

The information in the box called for up to 60 watt bulbs, so that is what we used. It looks a lot brighter than 60 watt bulbs because the globe has so much area for light diffusion. We had much smaller lights that were close to the ceiling that used 60 watt bulbs & the first thing we noticed was how much brighter the hallways were with the larger shade. The top area of the shade difuses toward the ceiling as well. I think you will be surprised at how much more light these shades deliver.

I'm not sure what the T3 means but I needed 12V 20W G4 bulbs for landscaping lights and these matched the bulbs I bought from Home Depot and they seem to last longer. I'd vote to buy them.

I've found that the GY5.3 base is a standard but that makes it doubly important that you match the voltage and the watts because they are not standard. I helped a church that kept blowing out bulbs because they were using 240w bulbs in a 360w system.

I just replaced mine couple weeks ago and the bulbs are by GE crystal clear 40 watts. Make sure the base of the bulb... The gold metal part of it is engraved 120v40w2L10. I got them from Walmart for under $2. The has 4 bulbs in it and the are shaped like the original ones. The pack says 2x life...360 lumens...corrosion resistant base.

No expert here but have used in several locations.. they are smaller and work w/ a clip on shade on my small desk light.. can measure it but the say equal to 100 watt conventional bulb.. I would say equal to a 60 watt.. but do save energy so am happy with them..
