Does this lamp have a Wattage limit listed? Can I use a 50/100/150 bulb, or is it a 60-watt max fixture?

The Technical Details of the lamp list the wattage at 40 and the supplier recommends 40-watt bulbs, usually sold in sets of 2. Touch Lamps do not use special bulbs. It is the sensor in the lamp that makes it a touch lamp, not the bulb.

It is 60 watt max. The lamp has three settings so that each touch changes the amount of light output.

Sorry, didn't keep the box, but I'm pretty sure it only takes a 60-watt, that is what we have in ours. It does have the touch feature for different levels of light. Very happy with the lamp. Hope that helps.

It only uses 60 watts and you can touch 2 to 3 times to go from dim to full light. Hope that helps and is a nice product for the price.

This lamp is too small for even a 60 watt bulb. I use a 40 wall and believe that is what is listed for max usage by the manufacturer

We were only able to use this lamp for a couple weeks and then it stopped working. I would advise not buying it. Especially since the company will not respond to emails.

It can use either a 60 watt or 13w CFL. I am using both and the light is good.

I would only use the maximum the lamps states. You might risk overheating and causing an electric short. The lamp is very reflective and should not need a 100 watt bulb.

The beam on the included bulbs is much more than 90 degrees.You can look around for different MR16 LED bulbs to find what you need. I use LED bulbs in these and they're fine --- rated for 50watts. I don't see why the housing would limit a 60degree bulb.

I use 6 watt led bulb with no problem. Which is equivalent to 40 watt. Been using it for several months now works great! 60 watt should be just fine.

Not sure on the max, but I have had a 120 watt incandescent in there with no problem. Currently, I have an LED bulb that puts out equivalent light at a much, much lower wattage.

Additional answer: When it is noted that a bulb larger than 60 or 75 watts should not be used, it is because of the heat generated by an enclosed bulb, which can damage the fixture. It is not because of the wiring capacity of the fixture.

The fixture takes 3 halogen bulbs, not sure if they're 50 or 60 watts, but it gives off plenty of light....hope this is helpful!!!

Unfortunately no, 60 watts max. is recommended, but I have been using a 100 watt bulb without any problems.

Maximum 9 Watt or 40 Watts. Definitely don't go above that. I neglected to check the wattage and used a 60 Watt bulb, which melted the exterior.

It says on the lamp you can use 150 watt type A or smaller. It also says 120V 60 hz ac only.

someone else answered that the manufacturers spec says 660w. I use a 250w heat lamp in mine without real issue. what I take issue with is the switch mechanism. it does not hold up the way the fixture does as it is made of cheap plastic and does not seem to be replaceable in itself. my last fixture I used for about a year and a half without a switch, just loosening or tightening the bulb to turn on/off.

It does not note the wattage on the light. people at Lowes w we chose a 60 watt bulb. It has been operating well

Yes, these fixtures are rated for 100 watt max. I have installed all LEDs in mine to minimize having to replace the bulbs very often.

The label states that the maximum wattage is 100. But I use a 60 watt bulb, I like softer light, but it gives off plenty of light.

60W is the maximum but there is no need to reach that limit to obtain that beautiful light we want for our homes. This bulb gives off that beautiful light output with 350 lumens, but only consumes 5W. It doesn't heat up and it perfectly fits. This bulb is really a good find for this lamp, I highly recommend it Triangle Bulbs T90020 (Pack of 2) G16 Decorative Globe Light Bulbs 300 Lumen 5-watt LED Light Bulb with E26 Base, Color 3000K, Dimmable, UL Listed, Energy star certified,

Hi. I looked at my lamp that has 3 bulbs and it says max for the fixture is 660 watts. I use dimmable flourescant 24 watt lights. I am using it with alarge drum shade over the dinning room table and 1 bulb would not be nearly enough light even with a 100 watt bulb. You have more options of light levels with a3 bulb fixture unlessyou are using a small shade in a small area
