watts = heat

the combo w the least watts should put out the least heat

as long as you have the room for them and your wiring is solid, the 3 bulbs should be best imho

DrSpoof Reviewed by DrSpoof on . cfl question, big vs. small ok, here's the situation. i can use 3 23 watt cfl's and get 4800 lumens, or i could use a larger cfl, somewhere around 75-125 watts and get around the same amount, the first option is cheaper and they're easier to find than the bigger ones, also the smaller cfl's are easier to find in the 6500k spectrum. the main question is which set up will produce more heat? one big bulb or 3-4 small bulbs?
