Can a 220 V bulb be connected to a 110 V network?

Can a lamp designed for a 220 volt network be connected to a network with a supply voltage of 110 volts? I have a SBPA-15 lamp with a C110-12-100 + 50 lamp, I wanted to put an ordinary lamp designed for 220-230 Volts.

    Hello! An incandescent lamp in this power mode will work fine and will last a very long time, only it will shine at half light, but LED lamps will most likely not work. Of course, if the voltage range of the type "90-230V" is not indicated in its technical specifications. Well, you can use a transformer or autotransformer. Turn the transformer on the contrary: apply 110V power to the 110V output, and connect the load to the 220V “input”.

    EXACTLY in half? Thought well? Maybe try again ... straight from school to start

      Are you critical of the percentage of luminous flux to a decrease in the effective voltage by half? I more than perfectly remember that the school did not consider the dependence of the light flux on the supplied energy to the incandescent lamp spiral, but it will probably be less. But with a supply voltage of two less than the rated voltage, half the power will be allocated to the resistive load, without taking into account the influence of the temperature coefficient of resistance. But even under such conditions that the lamp shines dimmer than twice, no one forbids installing 200 lamps instead of 100W, for example.
      And when you turn on the incandescent lamp through the diode, which gives a cut of one half-wave and a decrease in the root mean square voltage by more than two times, brightness. The lamp perceived by the eye is reduced not so noticeably.

    I bought by mistake an inverter from 12 to 110 in with a power of 6000 watts. Can I connect it to an iron that is rated for 220 V or not?
