POLL: PIC, how bright do you light up your computer area?

[Geekbabe]

Depends on which room I'm in , workbench area is lite up like an airport runway

 

[monk3y]

At night my monitor does the majority of the lighting up.

meh... overhead lights are cool. I HATE!!! desk lamps, because it takes space when I could be using free ceiling space.

I rarely use lights, I have one crappy one in my room but I turn that on like once a week, I prefer to be in dark.

Presently using an eclipse computer light. Much nicer on the electiric bill

Just a single desk lamp with a blue bulb. It used to be red but that got annoying. Would have more light on but my roommate goes to sleep early.

Right now, it's my stand lamp on the other side of my bedroom. It's a 200 watt bulb, but the lamp is only up about halfway. At school, it's the same lamp plus daylight. At night, it's usually a frosted 60 watt bulb aimed at the wall so as not to disturb my light-sleeping roommate.

Now, if you had 3 lcd monitors, and it was dark, wouldn't taht make it super bright?

 

[Zim Hosein]

Jerboy, My computer is located in one corner of my room and the "only" light I have comes from a combo ceiling fan/4 bulb light. Each light puts out 60w of light through clear glass, not the "frosted" type.

 

[notfred]

same two overhead florescents I use for all my other lighting.

 

[Freejack2]

I have a couple of flourescents in the fixture, one is a plain flourescent, and the other is one of those ones that supposedly puts out natural light or something like that.

Your power bill must be through the roof :Q

Since incandescent lamp is only 8% efficient, each bulb must be 750W to produce 60W of light, so all together 240W light and 3,000W input. 3000/120=25A. Zim Hosein, is your lights on it's dedicated 30A breaker?

Main light is 60W here. Most of the time is off though, and I just started wearing glasses
