There seems to be some misprint in the ad copy. The answer to your question is "Yes". If you have a standard base bulb you may use this adapter to convert it to a candelabra base. The confusion (base numbers is when you try to use an old style c-9 bulb used in the older style oudoor christmas light strings which is slightly larger. Hope this helps

Yeah, all the terminology is confusing and I'm not sure exactly what silicone dipped candelabra bulbs are, but I can tell you that I used these adapters to allow me to put an LED nightlight bulb with the smaller what I think is a candelabra base, in a lamp with the traditional what I think is considered a medium base. So yes, I think these will work for what you want, but I can't be certain. I can assure you this adapter works for reducing the traditional common light socket size to the traditional common nightlight/candelabra size.

btw, so dumb that these vendors post bulbs w/o giving voltage or wattage. When we remove the bulbs, we can clearly see voltage and wattage on the base. So we're naturally looking for those characteristics when we buy a replacement. Vendors need to think about the consumers who buy these and what they look for when buying a bulb. An another note: that screw-on base style is for 120VAC bulbs. At least think those are always 120VAC. 12V and 24V don't seem to use this type of base (never saw a srew-in 12 or 24 volt bulb).

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

Hi, No a candelabra base is different from a intermediate base. you can see the link bellow to a 7 Watt C9 intermediate listing:**25 Pack** 7 Watt C9 Clear Incandescent Light Bulb, Intermediate Base

The item's instructions calls for 25 watt candalabra base bulbs. That's what I used.

Be cautious. See other Amazon comments. There's an older bulb and a newer bulb and the newer bulb will not fit the older sockets. Call OTT customer service and see if they have any advice. One comment says the older bulb base measures .9075" across the flats of the base (?) but he newer ones measure .921". Another comment mentions a difference in shape (tabs).

Patsy, Do not buy the ChiaChin bulbs. Buy the candela base correct bulbs from lowes or home depot and buy the candela to intermediate base adapters on line. The adapters are very cheap and will make the candela base into a intermediate base that you need. The ChiChin bulbs did not even work for me. My lighting fixtures on my bed headboard have a dimmer and it's not a LED dimmer. most lights that have dimmer capability must have a LED dimmer if you want to install LED lights.

The light bulb socket is a candelabra style base. I couldn't find that style base in any size bigger than 40W. That's why I switched to a CFL bulb. Those bulbs put out more light and use less watts.

I don't know about the E numbers (very confusing!) but I purchased these and they work to convert candelabra bulbs just fine, so maybe E12 and E72 are the same. Hope this helps. Love these things! Deb M

This miracle led extender works for all types of bulbs with E26 or E27 standard base. The base commonly found in your house.

Hello, Thank you for asking me. I'd love to answer any questions you have about this product. The bulb's total length is 3 inches from base of screw E27 to top of plastic cover. E27 is considered a medium base, it's basically the normal size screw of a regular light bulb. The European version is E27 and the American version is E26. The E27 bulb fits every light socket i've used them on with little difference. If you're ordering this same bulb from Factop I would make sure it's the E27 because the order I placed they sent the wrong bulbs which were G9 bulbs.

E27 and E26 is the same difference. Both are terms for medium base. Also, your shipping will be around $12.00. Thanks. Michael Weisberg Novelty Lights, Inc.

No, you will have to get the bulbs with a different base, the one's u purchased have a regular lightbulb base, you need the candelabra base for that application. Good luck

this is a standard lamp base ( also known as an Edison base or medium base ), not a candelabra base. This lamp also needs to be in an open environment due to its heat output. ( not enclosed in a fixture )

Just go to Ace Hardware, tell them you need decorative bulbs with a candelabra base. The top can look however you prefer but it needs a candleabra base. It uses a maximum of 60 watts so you can use anything less than 60. A candelabra base is the smallest base there is for light fixtures.

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 =]
