What is the difference between 120 volt light bulbs and 130 volt bulbs?
As we all know, household current is 110 volts. Most light bulbs are made to accept 120 volts of incoming power to allow protection from fluxuations in the incoming voltage. 130 volt bulbs will have a slightly longer life span but tend to burn dimmer due to the fact that they are receiving only a 110 volt input and thereby operate at less than 100% of their efficiency.
