It would be the equivalent of 100W LED lighting. Which, when you consider household LEDs typically only emit ~1-2W of light, 100W would be a lot of light.

They probably meant an LED that is equivalent to a 100W incandescent.

I don't know what LEDs you have, but mine usually emit 8-12W (ceiling lamps)

I know. It's a joke, and I have repaired a work light with two 50W LED modules so I know exactly how much light 100 W of LED lighting emits, and I'm pondering what it would take other technology to correspond to that.

And the input power of typical E27 household LED bulbs is usually 8-12 W. If one buys a 1-2W LED bulb, they will often find it useless and throw it out (I know because I sift through light bulb bins in shops.)
