My bathroom lights has 14 100w bulbs. It's a little too bright so I was just thinking of letting them burn out and instead of replacing them. I was wondering which is better in general. 1. Let 7 burn out and unscrew them. (Would having sockets without bulbs be bad for the fixture?) 2. Let 7 burnt out and just leave them in the fixture. (Would leaving burnt out bulbs in the sockets be bad for the fixture?) 3. Replace all 14 with 50w bulbs. (Would it save twice the amount of energy? Do I lose half the amount of light?)
