I believe 60W but I have a EcoSmart 60W Equivalent LED 800 Lumen Light bulb (uses only 10watts) that's in it now and its works great!

Hi, Penny,I'm just using the bulb that came with the lamp...don't even know the wattage. It's an incandescent bulb that's usually used in aquariums. I'm "old school," and prefer incandescents to the new bulbs. Take care.Tony

I don't recall a specific wattage requirement. I use 40 or 60 watt bulbs. I usually just use one lamp at a time , but if I need more light I just turn on a second one.

Hi, thanks for posting your question. According to the product information available, this lamp uses (5) x 25 Watt Candelabra Base Bulbs or CFL equivalent. For future reference, this information is located to the right of the product picture on the Product Page. I hope this is helpful!

150 watt is the maximum. It says so on a sticker right on the lamp that I have. The sticker also says to use "type A lamp 3-way or smaller".

someone else answered that the manufacturers spec says 660w. I use a 250w heat lamp in mine without real issue. what I take issue with is the switch mechanism. it does not hold up the way the fixture does as it is made of cheap plastic and does not seem to be replaceable in itself. my last fixture I used for about a year and a half without a switch, just loosening or tightening the bulb to turn on/off.

Because of the material the lamp shade is made of , please use 60 watts or less. It may seem a little dim, but I only use it for mood lighting during the evening time.

no, the lamp uses a 12 volt 24 watt bayonet base light bulb ... the same bulb used in automobiles.

I'm not sure of the exact wattage the manufacturer says, but we put in some frosted glass bulbs (candelabra) and they too bright. We have the light on a dimmer, so it's not a problem, but we rarely turn it all the way up. Those are 60W. Btw- We love this chandelier. It's perfect, for us.

Check the product specs for this item at Amazon; this lamp takes a 100w 3 way bulb. So you can't exceed 100W. I'm using only a single 6w bulb in mine and it's fine.

I wrote down "T190 watt came with new lamp." I put in a GE heavy duty 300 watt T2.5 bulb type. R7 base. 120 volts. It was from another, practically identical halogen lamp we got several years ago. That other lamp does have a sticker stating 300 watts max. This light you're looking at has a sticker inside the top saying not to use more than 190 watts. That wasn't bright enough for me. I know they burn hot. We do not have it near draperies, and I prefer to not leave either halogen lamp on when we leave the house. But, with 300 watts, it is good light. My older lamp has a click type little dial for low or high. This new one, which we've had since July 30, 2013, has a dial type knob, to select highest range to off. But, I still use the wall switch to really turn it off when I am done in my computer room.

I want to say 40 watts per bulb, but I have it on a dimmer an never use that much light.

Sorry for my delay. I don't remember...I believe it was in the instructions. We used a 25 watt bulb.

I don't know about the watts, but the lamp is plenty bright enough in my bathroom. I have no complaints.
