Like four old filament light bulbs!

The regular ones were up to 100W, but it was possible to buy the high-wattage ones (up to 300W I think?), intended for older appartments with very high ceilings and similar.

It's crazy to think how much electricity was spent just for lighting not so long ago.

In real wattage, yes.

Converted to light emitted by traditional light bulbs, it's more like 40 bulbs of 60W.
