Is the light bulb on this 3 pod unit proprietary or can I replace with generic bulbs? Can I use an LED bulb instead? If so, any recommendations?

The bulbs do not have a standard light bulb base, but use a special 2-pin bulb. You should be able to find replacements at a home improvement store. Don't think there are LED versions of the bulb available.

I'm nearly sure it proprietary. It's an odd shape and has a unique plug. In fact, if you want to use the light in any typical socket, you need to buy an adapter. It probably also shines light at wavelengths that can "feed" a plant so that it can photosynthesize; I don't think every type of bulb shines that kind of light....

Yes.It's an LED bulb.It is built into the unit. They can't be replaced seperately.

Have simply used standard par 38 incandescent bulbs in all 3 units...no problems. Have not tried LED's. JET

NO, I bought this based on the previous answer but I didn't get the joke. Now I am sending it back. I want to be able to replace the bulbs.

not available locally; i got mine online. cannot convert back to a standard bulb. the prongs of the led stuff are notably larger and "stretch" receiver to where it will not accommodate the original incandescent bulb (won't stay lit without banging). will need to replace that mag light part as well.

It is a sealed unit. Bulb replacement would require breaking the housing. I would not/did not go that route. I replaced the whole unit. Cheers

Try here on Amazon. I've had my unit for 3.5 years and haven't had to change my bulb. At one point I thought it was out but after cleaning the unit and the housing unit of the bulb I found that my bulb was still working and continues to work even now.

We used LED 100 watt bulbs and they work wonderfully. I think you can use anything you want as long as the can unit it attaches to can tolerate it.

Hi Joanne, I too ended up at Home Depot to try to get the right bulb & they no longer offered a replacement bulb for the lamp I bought there, so I rewired the fixture to accept a CFL. I have two of these bulbs & would be happy to ship them to you so you can try them. If they fit your application, send me something neat for Christmas & we're square. If they don't fit, you can donate them to the Goodwill, or ??? Thanks & Best Wishes, John

you can replace with LED 4W GU10 bulbs. LED's are much warmer, but do not give off as much light.

The fatboy has a 1W led light. With three light brighnesses. There are screws on the base, so I presume the bulb can be changed if required.. But being LED it will have a very long life span..

I bought a track light kit from a big box store. The led lights were removeable. We were able to put them on an existing track that previously had powered halogen bulbs.

I am sorry I took so long to answer but the email got lost in the shuffle. I haven't changed the bulb yet but I did try to change it on an older model and never succeeded. This model might be easier to work with. I am sorry I can't be of more help but it seems to be trial and error.

I bought one from this company so you wouldn't be buying it from me. That being said, I haven't inspected the light but I would guess its a standard bulb given the price.

You can buy individual modules (the puck plus the wire), if you look around. As for the individual bulbs within the pucks, no. Not that I know of. Definitely not covered in the instructions either. I've had mine installed and burning constantly for months and nothing is burning out. But, there are other problems with the unit that I detailed in my review. Still, I think they're worth it.
