Is the socket size for the 60 watts light bulb standard?. Thank you.

It is for a candelabra bulb. I have to tell you though we've had a lot of problems with this fan and have now replaced it.

it is a standar size, I use it for light bulbs 5 to 60 watts and it works well.

As I read the package 60 wattts is the energy required by the buld to give the light equivalent of a regular 100 watt bulb.

The size for a standard 60 watt bulb. Don't forget all this is, is a length extender for a bulb. Works really well.

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

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 socket flares upward and it accepts the standard sized bulb, the ones with the base of the same shape and size as good old regular 60W incandescents. But the lamp itself is wired for 13 watts, and the LIFX says that it can draw up to 17 watts. I hesitate to suggest overclocking the lamp by 17 when it's built for 13. IKEA, if they're prudent, built their lamp to cope with a bit of overclocking, but...the prudent consumer doesn't absolutely rely on this.

I don't know about your fixtures, since I don't know if they're normal, but this has the same threading and size as a standard 60W incandescent light bulb. For reference, the "normal" 60W incandescent, in the U.S., uses an E26 base, which this uses. So if you're looking at any CFL or LED bulb, if you can find the base specified as E26, then that gives you the "normal" size. There's more here (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edison_screw) and here (http://www.harringtonlights.com/Reference/identifying_light_bulbs.htm).

Thank you for your query. Please be informed that the WD-60C9 lamps that we have in stock are High quality, 180 Watt TV Lamp Replacements with Bulb and Housing.

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.

I have mine over a regular-size light bulb, not sure of the wattage- probably 60 or 100 watt.

yes I am using a 5 = 60 watt led bulb in one .The adapter converts a candelabra bulb base to a standard lamp size bulb .It does add about 1 1/2 inch length to the bulb fixture so make sure your bulb will fit if it's in a globe though.

I use standard, 60 watt light bulbs - any bulb with the same type of thread system or an adaptor for special bulbs

The bulb base is standard!! Don't by the smaller base kind as advertised. Get a candelabra shape with a regular base. 60 watt.

These bulbs are approximately the same size as traditional 60w bulbs. If your current bulbs are the smaller 40w incandescents ... there might be a size issue. My advice would be to purchase the Crees, and even if they didn't fit ... you can always find other 60w bulbs in need of an energy-efficient upgrade!

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.)

That is 100 watts per socket. But since 100 incandescent are extinct, I've been using 60's and it looks very nice. Now they're going extinct too. I hate CFLs. Poisonous Mercury in them.
