Fawteen,
It's been a lot longer for me than it has for you since we attended ET"A" school, so you're probably right.
However, in my weak, old mind, I would see the situation differently from you. A 40 watt bulb is only a 40 watt bulb at a specified voltage due to the resistance of the filament and the consequent current in the circuit. The resistance of that bulb is not going to change. I agree that P=I*E, however, in this case, I believe that the current is going to increase, and the voltage is certainly going to increase, therefore, the power consumption is going to increase as well. The bulb will burn brighter and consume more power.
But then again, I graduated ET"A" school 52 years ago, so I could be all wrong.
