Will a PAF38 CFL base fit in these? I've often found that the CFL ballast bases tend to be a tad wider than the taper of many floodlight housings...

I have been using these for my outside house and garage floodlights and they fit in standard housing and in my motion-sensor housings as well.

I think it's a standard base. I initially put cfl bulbs in the unit then switched to LED. Hope this helps.

Not sure, what I've been using for this fixture is a PAR38 LED bulb and it works great. It's a perfect fit and the light output is nice. You can check it out here, I highly recommend it: Triangle Bulbs (Pack Of 4) 15-Watt (120-Watt) PAR38 LED Flood Light Bulb, Dimmable, UL Listed, Energy star certified,

No, you have to get a socket with a 3 prong plug that is compatible to the ballast, which usually has a 15ft cord. This socket is made for mogul base cfl's.

base is the same...as long as you have clearance for a larger bulb like this in its place you should be fine

A "medium base" should be a standard bulb base for all incandescent bulbs. This has that type of base. Its designed for outdoor security flood lights.

Yes. All typical house style bulbs will fit in this fixture from incandescent to CFL, and even new LED. They screw in the typical lightbulb way, and then you install the class dome (which can be seen in the picture) over the bulb.

I use 40 watt bulbs in mine. The base is the same as standard bulbs, but they are shaped like a flame instead of the regular bulb shape.

I'm not sure how you are getting this measurement but it's larger than that. The flood light bulbs (P-38) are wider than 5" and wouldn't fit into a 4" wide fixture. But these fixtures are "standard" size for P-38 stage lighting fixtures, I've been using this types for many yours and from different manufacturers. Also, the price and quality were very good from this provider. Will order again!

Probably not. These are screw in bases and are slightly larger than a 60 watt incandescent bulb that I replaced. If you had to add the screw base to plugin base adaptor I think it would be to big.

I use a 100 watt equiv CFL blub in my light. The length of the bulb including the thread base is 4.75 inches so you should be good there. The diameter is 2.5 inches but I believe it will accommodate another .25 inch on the side. A 3-inch diameter bulb is rather large; are you sure?

I did use one of those elongated lightbulbs, about 5 inches long and 1.5 inches wide, because I did not like how the CFL looked. It was too bright. It works fine.....I wish the damned slider pole could be tightened, however!

A BR30 bulb will fit, and I highly recommend using this one: Triangle Bulbs (Pack Of 4) 8-Watt (65-Watt) BR30 LED Flood Light Bulb, Dimmable, UL Listed, Energy star certified,

They fit in all the sockets that previously held regular 40W incandescents. To me this means they fit a standard base. So far I like them a lot. Good light and no problems.

I'm using a PAR 38 LED bulb and it works perfectly. It's a great fit and the lighting is beautiful. This bulb is a good find, hope it helps Triangle Bulbs (Pack Of 4) 15-Watt (120-Watt) PAR38 LED Flood Light Bulb, Dimmable, UL Listed, Energy star certified,

I don't believe they make cfl in the size u need. It takes a size Ca bulb which is a smaller size base made for some fans and lights.

Yes. The CFL bulb will fit. That is the type I use and it works quite well.

Mr. Jordan:Answer is NO. Base is hexagonal w/each section 3 1/4" long. I.E. one must have a base w/dimensions of at least 6"X7". This is quite a large lamp. Hope this is of help.

I am not sure, we have recessed lights (I think they call them high hats) in our kitchen and we used standard indoor floods (par 30) previously. The Feit bulb fit perfectly in ours, and we had been unable to use the CFL types before because they wouldn't fit into the narrow opening for the "neck" of the bulb. We've had this for a while now and it's a pleasant warm white color. I think you'll like it.
