I checked out the LED light bulbs on the EnergyRay.com home page a while ago, and was wondering what exactly their measure of brightness converts to in lumens. For example, they say in relation to one product: 'This is a fourteen (14) bright White LEDs bulb, it consumes only 0.5 Watts of power'. The idea of converting to such an efficient product is obviously very appealing, but I suspect that it doesn't actually give off that much light. Can anyone tell me what these bulbs are likely to produce in lumens, or the wattage of a conventional bulb that would give off the same amount of light? If they actually are quite bright..well..is there a catch?..Am I missing something?

Yes,i thought the number of lumens and a comparison to incandescent output would be helpful too,,i know that they are very bright,but some info on the wavelength and whether they are harsh glary or warm red or cool blueish.i know you can mix the red ones of 450m with blue ones of 660m to make a lite which will grow plants,which means it would be a more full spectrum lite,like Sunlight.. ,,i hope they come back and clarify..

Thanks for that diogenes. I might see if I can contact them via their website, although I dislike doing that kind of thing (..I almost always picture someone at the other end of these e-mails bad-mouthing inquisitive pests like me..). I just hope they weren't being purposefully ambiguous.
