What light bulb base is needed? Is it the standard size or is it smaller?

it is a standard Edison base, however in my opinion, the light is crap. It looks cool on the outside, yet has substandard wiring, hence any bulb larger than 25-watts burns it out. What good is a 25-watt lamp???

It is smaller but I wouldn't have another one. A regular bulb will fit but it looks awful because it sticks out from under the shade. However, I had the smaller bulb in mine and it melted into the lamp. There was no way to even remove the bulb, everything melted together!

The base is the same size as the base on a standard incandescent light bulb. I have a spare sodium bulb and just tried putting it in a standard household lamp. It fits the lamp base the same as a standard bulb would. Of course I did not turn the light on for obvioius reasons. Used the LU70 to replace a Grandlite HPS 70W. Hope this helps.

This is the same size as a standard lightbulb base, can't remember the correct term for what it's called. I don't know about the other part of your question.

I agree completely. One of the light bulbs required is not standard and is very hard to find in stores--even hardware stores do not carry that size. The fact should be stated in the description--or, better yet, one of the odd-sized bulbs should be included.

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 =]

You need the candelabra light bulb, the base is the same as a night light bulb. You can find them at any home improvement store or walmart, target type store. They come in different wattage, too

It has the A19 base like a standard lightbulb. We use it in a desk lamp so the bulb is not too big.

The height and width of the base is "standard" for most lighting that attaches to the outside of the property. I had a light up previously that I replaced with this one and the opening was perfectly covered with the new fixture. I think they're pretty standard.

Standard incandescent (Type A) or CFL. It has a standard size screw-in base.

They do have a smaller base than standard bulbs, but be aware that there are multiple base sizes, still. E11 is mini-candelabra, and E12 is just candelabra. These bulbs are E12, which I think is the most common for chandeliers that use smaller bulbs.

Standard base. I use the curly CFLs and am very satisfied with the amount of light given off.

Standard 20x20 base plate size. Depends on the model, there is only one light in the centre and it is not overly bright. Some models work well, others don't show up very well.

standard socket sized. But as someone else pointed out...this bulb is quite a bit 'taller' than a normal bulb.

Hi there...I purchased a converter from amazon and now I could use any standard base screw type light bulb. Hope this helps.

It is the same base that is on a 4 watt Christmas tree shaped bulb used in many nightlights. My wife needed a bulb for a makeup mirror and the standard nightlight bulbs did fit but were not bright enough.

It's an E12 base, i.e. 12 mm (a little less than half an inch) in diameter. It fits standard U.S. chandeliers with small-diameter sockets..

I took a peek, and yes the bulb is smaller. I didn't unscrew it so I don't know about the base.
