At peak it draws 250w or just a tad over 4 standard incandescent bulbs. Probably actually slightly less then 4 bulbs depending on the efficiency of the ballast used if you took that into account. Also they get a lot higher then then 100w, in horticulture 400w&600w bulbs where common before leds replaced them. (Although a high quality incandescent can put out more light per watt then some of the really crappy horticulture lights)
Now I was probably exaggerating a bit when I said tiny tiny. At 250w/18 we would need a draw of about 13.888w this is the closest I can find it’s 11w so a little smaller then a 13.8w and tbh I would call it small not tiny.
these I would call tiny at ~0.4w per bulb but much smaller then this cob led, assuming we consider all the diodes on a cob to make up one light wich I totally would. In the same way we consider all the molecules in the wire of a bulbs filament part of the light, in fact if we take that to the extreme and argue all the diodes on a single lighting unit constitute a light (wich is a bit of a stretch) we get big boys like this and of course much larger.
Now if we want a tiny tiny incandescent light I would say we look more at something like this

You said 6 and 18 at peak. 18*60w=1080w.

And just because I like extremes while obviously not commercially available look at this 1.4 micron long 13nm wide incandescent light made at UCLA! And then there’s this fucking giant incandescent bulb
That is to say, no when I said tiny bulb I did not mean led. I meant smaller then the incandescent lights used in households in normal fixtures.
Also 11*60w is stil 660w and last I checked 660 is greater then 250.
