I'm guessing they meant 10-watt incandescent equivalent?
LEDs are fantastic heaters that also give out a little bit of light... ten watts of LEDs would need a big heat sink for a sealed air install, or a good sized one if natural convection is available.

Six watt lamp module that suffered catastrophic failure when the bond to the heatsink failed... even the units that still have their bond didn't fair so well during the 100 degree heat we had this summer. Back to the drawing board!
