Is the socket size E 12? I have no idea what bulb to get to fit the socket.

Hi, Yes the socket is size E 12. The little bulbs you would use for night lights fit in the socket. I use a slightly larger bulb that is 40W for a salt lamp that we have. I bought the cord and socket to replace one that wasn't working on a salt lamp and it works great.

actually its called a candelabra base, the smallest standard bulb. the only base smaller is the appliance base like for the refrig. shouldnt be hardto find this bulb, I get a 3-4 pak for a few dollars, like GE 25w, just make sure its the small base =]

The socket is configured to fit a regular light bulb fixture. I just a regular 60 watt energy savings bulb. You can use halogen but may be an overkill.

E 12 has a 12 mm base and is used in chandeliers with 12mm sockets. The sample looks smaller

It is made for a standard light socket (E27) it would not work in a Candelabra Edison Screw (E12).

It's an E11 used only for small halogen bulbs. I don't believe there is any other bulbs that use an E11 socket. You can adapt an E11 to E12 (candelabra base). I replaced the socket with a standard E19 socket. The other limiting factors are the diameter of the shade opening (small) and its depth. I was able to get 40W equiv LED ceiling fan bulb to fit. If you go that way, be sure to get a bulb rated for enclosed fixtures. In short, it's possible, but difficult. The manufacturer needs to update the light assembly since a 75W or 100W halogen uses up to 10X what an equivalent LED bulb would, has a much shorter life, and produces unecessary heat.

Yes I know that already the description says that, but I need to know if it is E12 bulbs

Yes indeed. Standard size socket. Iusg say that several of these bulbs failed quickly.

Mine had a standard a-type Edison socket, like a standard light built. You could certainly use one of the modern LED bulbs designed to fit standard fixtures.

The bulbs I received are the normal socket size. Not the smaller candelabra size.

It's smaller than the socket. I put mine on top of the socket so it will take any size bulb. Hope this helps. PS: it is to small to screw onto the socket itself.

I don't know how its going to work out, do you have parts to convert it? It might be too big for socket.

Is e27 a standard socket? I don't know what socket I have but a regular light bulb fits into the lamp I just bought. Thanks

Yes, it will fit in any standard socket. However, be aware that it is much bigger than a regular bulb and is not likely to fit into a standard lamp harp or shade. (I use mine as a reading light and needed to buy a larger harp.)

I dont remeber that sizes of the socket that I used. I think it was a 10 to 12 mm. I reused the hardware from the old mirror. wish I could give you more information.

Hello Karen, This item takes a Candelabra Base type B bulb. There are threads in the socket I assure you, once you have the proper bulb, simply screw it into the lamp like you would any other I promise you it will fit and work. I hope this helps.
