Q: bryan wrote since power = volts x amperes; an increase in the applied voltage will result in a proportionate increase in current since volts = amperes x resistance would make more sense. what you wrote has volts and current on the same side of the equation. and an increase in the power that is a *product* of the two. an increase in consumed power will cause the filaments to burn hotter and reduce the life of the lamp. punkin a.a.d.ts resident electrical engineer taught us that blue light is brighter than yellow light! therefore we can turn down the juice and just tint the glass blue. .
