Is there an insert you can buy which would allow you to use regular 60 watt bulbs vs those little candelabra bulbs?

you can buy 3-Pack E12 to E26 / E27 Adapter - Converts Chandelier Socket (E12) to Medium Socket (E26/E27) to convert candelabra sockets to regular 60 watt bulb sockets

Yep, the candelabra base bulb available in incandescent, CFL and LED. I personally prefer the Lowes store brand "Utilitec" CFL (curly bulb) as these bulbs produce the majority of their light at power-on, unlike other brands that advertise "Instant On" and don't deliver. For this particular light fixture, the 60w (soft light) curly works well. For color matching clothes or just an interesting look, try the "Natural Light" bulb which simulates the light entering through a north facing window. This is a solid fixture that I added to an old 70s vintage fan and the color matches very well. Yep, the candelabra base bulb available in incandescent, CFL and LED.

I tried a 60w regular bulb and might have been able to get it in but it would really be tight and I was afraid I might break it. A higher wattage bulb might work if it has a longer neck.

I am not sure to understand the question. Are the "a shape" the classical lights bulbs and the "b shape" the candelabra light bulbs with smaller size? If this is the question, the answer is yes; in Amazon you will find converters like "Toplimit 4pack Intermediate base E17 TO E12 LED Candelabra Light Bulb Lamp Socket Adapter". If this is not the question, can you please clarify?

I am in the process of doing that, but I needed to find smaller, flat topped lights to fit in my pint jars. Just found them. Check out gardentherapy.ca. They have an article on doing this.

I have used several different bulbs. A regular 60 watt bulb fits fine. An energy saver bulb fits also.

Yes, I really like these because you can use a regular light bulb. The first one I had lasted nearly 7 years. It also comes in brown if you prefer that color.

Any lamp with a regular size socket like what a20 40 60 or 100 watt bulb would go in table lamp with out shade on it

I have a three lamp fixture that looks like a 75-100 watt incandescent. So to be honest, your 60 watt example would need two of these bulbs. They are also candelabra based (minny) designed for a chandelier or a similar styled lamp.

Sure can. I have four 60-watt equivalent bulbs in mine right now. There is plenty of room inside the globes...you could even put larger ones in there.

There are other choices but my lighting fixtures will not accommodate other size bulbs. Look at Lowe's or Home Depot for similar thread type and you will find something less expensive.

I use 40 watt bulbs in mine. The base is the same as standard bulbs, but they are shaped like a flame instead of the regular bulb shape.

I use regular GE 40 watt bulbs, round. You can get them at any drug store or grocery store.

Yes, this one takes a *regular* (large base) bulb. I sure wouldn't use anything bigger than 60 in it .... not sure what it's rated for, but 6 bigger bulbs would be overwhelmingly bright! I use 40 watt bulbs and that's plenty.
