Compact fluorescent lights cfls and leds have a lower wattage than incandescent bulbs but emit the same light output.
Fluorescent lamp wattage table.
Energy saving lamps have high luminous efficacy more lumens per watt.
The amount of energy a light bulb uses.
Fewer lumens equal dimmer light.
Standard 100 watt bulbs produce about 1600 lumens.

If you really like the look of those old fluorescent tubes get a cfl bulb.
A 40 watt fluorescent tube for example is rated around 2300 lumens.

Compact fluorescent light bulbs are commonly used in desk lamps floor lamps under cabinet lamps table lamps linear strips and sconces.
The greater the lumens the brighter or more intense the light.
To replace it with the same intensity led just look for one that rates around 2300 lumens.
The feel of the light tends to be extremely similar.
Typical lighting wattages the following is a basic guide to typical lighting equipment wattages.
Cfls have basically made fluorescent tube lighting entirely obsolete.

Existing fluorescent fixture ballast type can be determined by looking at the ballast.
Of course not every fluorescent incandescent metal halide etc lamp will give its lumens.
The luminous flux φ v in lumens lm is equal to the power p in watts w times the luminous efficacy η in lumens per watt lm w.
