Dear All,
I am newbie here.
I always believe that more ampere means more heat.. for example:
1) MR 16 Halogen Spot lamp 12 V 35 WATT
P=VI ; P = 55 Watt, V = 12 V
Hence,
I = 55/12 = 4.58 Amps
2) H3 Halogen head lamp 12 V 55 WATT
P = VI; P = 35 Watt, V= 12 V
Hence,
I = 35/12 = 2.91 Amps
I believed that current was mainly resistance in halogen lamp. More the resistance hence more the heat.
So this means 'MR16' should be more hotter then 'H3'.
This was just my basic understanding, I may be wrong.
If I am, I will appreciate if someone can guide to right answer.
Many thanks.
