Do you have to use the light bulb that came with it? I love the lamp but the buld puts out too much light.

I purchased it because I need the brighter light but I see that others have changed the bulb and had the results that they were looking for. Good luck.

The bulb it came with was too harsh for me. I put in a lesser watt and with a mellower light. Now it works fine.

It comes with the light bulb. By the way, I've been using mine since late September and it really helps.

My TV had the same problem. I decided it didn't probably matter and bought it. However, Amazon a actually sent me the wrong model of lamp, which didn't fit in the tv. I ended up taking the new lamp apart and putting the bulb itself in the old lamp. It was quite easy, just a few screws. Regardless, I still think the p does not matter, especially because many sites seem to use the two interchangeably. I'd say buy it.

Hi, We just have normal energy saver lightbulbs. I believe they came with the lamp.

no, I had to buy the special bulbs separately...but what well worth it. I've been using this set up for some time now and still stand by my original liking it post.

It's a beautiful lamp but it's plastic, so I'd really recommend if you use LED bulb because it doesn't heat up. I suggest that you use a 40W equivalent LED Globe bulb because it works best for me. The lighting is beautiful and relaxing, and this one, specifically, is really durable and energy efficient. Hope it helps (Pack of 4) G25 LED Bulb 6W, Warm white, 3000K, 40W Globe Bulb Incandescent Replacement, clear Cover, Dimmable, UL Listed, Energy star certified,

Yes everything you need is there minus the bottle you make the lamp with and no light bulb...regular bulbs work great.

Be sure the lightbulb in the base is okay, and not loose. We had to leave our lamp on for a long time before the contents would flow. Also, contact the company as they were good about replacing the first lamp we received. We were told the lamps do not ship well in cold weather, but the second lamp has been fine.

No the lighting is just fine. We love the lamp and get lots of compliments.

No you cannot use a regular bulb because it's deadly to reptiles, and in this model you need a special light bulb, look for it in related items. Hope I helped

The bulb is part of the whole lamp and cannot be replaced. So, the whole lamp must be replaced. BUT I LOVE my lamps !!! I have one on either side of my bed and highly recommend them. The light is bright and all you could ask for.

My lamp is older, and I had to screw it in. It looks great. Here's a pic: http://i.imgur.com/Ia5wmYX.jpg

The light bulb came with the lamp. It is one of the low energy coiled light bulbs. I have seen them in light stores and hardware stores allover. I bought this lamp as I do a lot of reading at night and it works well.

I use CFL bulbs for both lights on the lamp. On the lower light the bulb shows a little, but it doesn't bother me and I would rather use a CFL light than the one provided. The CFL light works fine on the top and you can't tell at all.

That is really a question for the bulb manufacturer - the lamp has nothing to do with it. This is not a very definitive answer, but the 3W bulbs I am using are really bright - actually a bit too bright for bedside use. I am considering adding a dimmer.

I did! It worked fine. I would purchase new bulbs though...the ones it come with arent the best quality. It truly is a lovey piece!
