    Hi Billjay,

    Thats a great question! To give you an idea, this fixture can use 100 watt bulbs giving it a maximum of 200 watts. In addition, the approximate lumens for two 100 watt bulbs is 2300 Lumen. For a 500sq foot room, it should provide a nice warm light for a room that size. Please let us know if you have any other questions!
