Hi -

Heat is not temperature. Temperature is a measure of average heat. If the lightbulbs have heat sinks, you need to consider the heat given off by the sinks as well. Heat sinks usually have large surface areas.

What you need to do is measure change of a gas or temperature in a closed system that contains the lightbulbs. This will measure the amount of heat produced.
