I just screwed my bulb into a normal lamp from Pottery Barn and it does not work? What's the deal?

This is a great bulb. I am using them for a lamp that I bought at West Elm and it fits perfect.

It could be a bad bulb. Sometimes they get knocked around in shipping and the circuit opens. Have you checked other bulbs in the same lamp? Also make sure the lamp is plugged in (I know it's silly but you'd be surprised at how often that is the problem).If the bulb is actually damaged, which you can usually tell by jiggling it and listening for a rattle or by inserting it into another socket and testing, just return it to Amazon through http://www.amazon.com/returns

I couldn't get this to work on any lamp in my house. I tried it on two nightstand lamps, and a living room end table lamp that is three-way, and a floor standing lamp, no luck. I think the key is that it needs to be an older style (or maybe higher quality) that has an all metal bulb socket (not ceramic), but that's just a guess.

On the bottom, front of the TV there is a panel that snaps off. Underneath, in the middle, you should see where the lamp module fits. Then you need the special torx screwdriver that should have come with the bulb. Once you remove the screws, you can slide the bad module out and insert the new bulb, and re-insert screws. You may notice a slight "heat" odor initially, but that should go away quickly. Good luck.

Swap the bulb that appears to be bad with the one that's working and see if it works. you might have gotten a faulted bulb

it might have welded its self in place if air got in it from the manufacture. Try rotating the bulb on its installed axis. I returned the one we bought because it came damaged and your right it was a very dull bulb. Good Luck

I just received the lamp, I have plugged it for 15 min but it doesn't work, I could see those orange colored LEDs for the dimmer and I could change them dragging right-left, however, the LED lamp itself doesn't work

Try to adjust the bulb, if this doesn't work, it's probably a damaged bulb.

You have to make sure you screw the light bulb on right if not it will not work. I had the same issue.

maybe its the bulb? i had to tackle mine a bit to get it into the socket properly. check that and if not then maybe u need to try a new bulb and if that doesnt work then maybe you got a faulty one. Mine is amazing IT WORKS FANTASTIC, no issues so far its a wayyyy better buy than i expected ..goodluck!

New bulb that came with lamp was definitely not bright enough and burned out quickly.had a bulb from pkg bought just before old lamp died. And put that in. Very little trouble putting it in. Much brighter. Lamp leans slightly, but works fine. Hope this helps.

Mine worked fine. Maybe its the light bulb that needs to be replaced. I don't know how to do that. Return it if you can.

This one worked great for me, just follow the instruction on how to wire it up. Your present lamp may be wired a different way, I mean white orred or black wires may go different places, do as the instructions say and put the wires with the right ones and it will work perfect.

Hi Joanne, I too ended up at Home Depot to try to get the right bulb & they no longer offered a replacement bulb for the lamp I bought there, so I rewired the fixture to accept a CFL. I have two of these bulbs & would be happy to ship them to you so you can try them. If they fit your application, send me something neat for Christmas & we're square. If they don't fit, you can donate them to the Goodwill, or ??? Thanks & Best Wishes, John

It looks right to me. I just bought a replacement today. It was a bit shorter but it was 13 watts and the socket fit correctly. Didn't work, but after I took it back out, I noticed a rattle in the bulb. So I'll take it back and try again. But the one you showed loos correct to me. I'd go to your local store for the bulb rather than the internet, in case it is damaged or doesn't fit right, you can take it back.

I would have no idea. That's something Amazon should answer.Did you try a new bulb I bought an extra bulb for each of the 2 lamps I bought.Bill

Did you try the dimmer switch? It should be in the off position. The bulb should not be hard to remove. Grasp the bulb close to the base and turn counter clockwise. If that doesn't fix the problem exchange it. You will get years of enjoyment from this bowl. Since you haven't seen it lit, you have missed how lovely it truly is and how wonderful it works. I have three different ones. They are always on. Also give as gifts.
