The question is a matter of power then. A 100W bulb at 5% light is 5W of light (assuming power vs energy can be compared this way... I don't do electrical engineering) which would correspond to a 35W LED producing less than one half of the heat when you consider that snow piling up in front of a light and the light enclosure will convert the IR to heat.
