why does it say 100 watts bulb in description?

Must be an error. We use a 60 watt. By the way, we love this lamp. The shade is real glass (not plastic). It's a lovely piece!

I believe that has to be a misprint. A 100 watt bulb would be too bright as well as too hot. I have a 13 watt fluorescent bulb in mine that is equivalent to the light output of a 60 watt incandescent bulb. If you chose to go with an incandescent bulb. I would not go higher that 40 watts.

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.

Maximum wattage per bulb is 100 for a total of 300 watts. This fixture is a good buy.

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.

I notice that it says 45 watt on one of the bulleted blurbs. I think that is a reference and it is a 60 watt bulb. It does say 60 watt on the bulb.

Interesting question. I have used 100 watt bulbs with this kit and not had a problem.

The bulb is 9 watts, works great for better than a year of continuous use......by the way, it can also serve as a night light.

If your using 125 watt bulb its max would be 125 watts. If you use a 250 watt bulb max watts would be 250 watts. Hope this helps.

I can't remember if it is or not. But I'm not sure that a 100 watt heat bulb is any hotter than a regular 100 watt bulb and the heat would be directed away from the mounting because it's a flood light, so I'd think it's rated fine for that.

According to the Amazon product review the lamp "Requires one incandescent bulb of up to 100 watts (not included)."

The item's instructions calls for 25 watt candalabra base bulbs. That's what I used.

i have used three 100 watts and haven't had a problem. i did have a couple broken when i got them though. i think they say not for sale in the USA because they are not allowed to sale them here anymore. I feel it is a shame we can't have the bulbs we want and like here. Mine do not say NOT FOR USE IN THE USA. Someone is getting a nice kick back making us use these newer bulbs that are horrible looking and working. i hate the way they dim after a bit of use and they are just plain awful. I am not an expert of course, but i think they say not for sale in USA because of the reason i gave above.

I gave to my granddaughter and I do not remember. I thought it was a 4 watt bulb. I will ask and repost.

It's for bulbs under 75 watt so I would get the next clamp light up for a 100 watt

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.

mary, yes this is an 18 watt bulb(s) but it states 1104 on bottom of bulb. i don't know if the pl1007 applies, nothing on bulb states that.

A quick conversion a 100w bulb would require just under a 20 watt LED.. The colors are not as saturated as a colored bulb but I'm sure you'll be happy with the LEDS.
