What kind of bulb does this use and what is the maximum wattage?

I remembered it came with 1 mini-can halogen bulb, I think its 100watts. Because of the frosted glass, its not as bright as it could be.

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

It takes a standard 60 watt bulb but I would recommend using a clear bulb instead of soft white. Hope that helps.

Dear debbie 60 is the maximum wattage you can use. I've used florescent lamps anyway. Good luck

The max wattage is 60. There is a small nightlight bulb included inside the leg. We only supplied the 60 watt bulb.. The leg lamp its self is a three way switch, not meant for a three way bulb. Hope this helps!

60W is the maximum. However, I use an LED globe bulb for this fixture with 350 lumens and the light is just outstanding and bright, but only consumes 5W. It doesn't heat up also. This bulb is really a good find for this lamp, I'd 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,

Sorry for my delay. I don't remember...I believe it was in the instructions. We used a 25 watt bulb.

100 W is the maximum, however, I wouldn't recommend that because that is too bright. This lamp looks better with just a soft white, but you are still able to read. I highly recommend this bulb: (Pack of 4) G25 LED Bulb 6W, Warm white, 3000K, 40W Globe Bulb Incandescent Replacement, clear Cover, Dimmable, UL Listed, Energy star certified,

Hi. You can not use a bulb that requires more than 13watts for each socket. You will burn out the socket.

I use 60 watt bulbs. Should last for at least a year or longer. Bulbs can be replaced. Product works.

Sorry I am not an expert on bulb types. Al I can say is that I replaced my original candelabra bulbs with this bulb and the result is phenomenal. I only need two of them to light up the dining room. I used to have 6 25-watt and 6 7-watt bulbs. YOu can figure out the savings on electricity. The illumination from the 12-watt LED bulb is brighter than the 192-watt total that used to light up the space.

I currently use a CFL bulb in mine. Only limit would be the size of the bulb (higher wattage = bigger bulb)

The bulb looks to be fluorescent. I uses a 1-watt bulb, supplied by order from OttLite.

I'm not certain of the max wattage but I'm using a 25 watt bulb to light my keyboard area. I tried a 13 watt squiggly type bulb but it was too bright for my needs. Great lamp for the desk.

40W is the maximum. However, if you use LEDs, you can only consume 5W from the 25W incandescent equivalent. It works great for me. Love the light.

60 watts max w/male end the size of a nitelite bulb. I used the energy star certified 60-watt CFL bulbs. The bulbs I bought are a bit too long but work. Choose one that is no more than 4 inches in length.
