Will this device work on a regular non-touch 3-way lamp?

It works on my lamp perfectly. Your lamp must have a metal socket and base for it to work. It does raise the height of the light bulb, so if your lamp uses a harp, it needs to have plenty of room for the taller light bulb.

Yes, it works at all 3 levels. I have a 50/100/150 watt bulb in my 3 way lamp. You do have to use incandescent light bulbs.ks

I think so. Lamp switch would have to stay on high setting. And of course body would have to be metal.

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.

Yes, it will. I have one on a few regular non-touch 3-way lamps. They work great. You just have to have a metal spot on the lamp you can touch to turn it on, brighter and off. I have one on a ceramic lamp and it works there as well but I have to touch the metal part just above the ceramin portion. I have a 50-100-150 bulb in one of them.I don't know if they work with those new bulbs though.

Yes, if the lamp has metal parts. However, the lamp will have to be switched to one of the three on settings - usually the second, but this may vary. check the instructions.

Patti, can't say because we bought it to do the same thing for us, but the unit wouldn't even fit in the bulb socket, so we never got to try or use the sockets. Haven't even bothered to send them back - they are just sitting in my garage in a box. sorry I couldn't help with your question- Roger Colucci, Goodyear, AZ

This lamp has a 60 watt maximum bulb recommended. So a 3 way or 100 watt bulb will not work.

We just use it on one of our lamps. We have always used the "touch" pad for our lamps. We love it. So only one lamp for us in a separate room from the others.

It uses a USB mini-B connector on the light, but otherwise, any USB cable that has that connector will work.

It supports 3-way bulbs but has in-line electronics that is supposed to keep the lamp from working with wattage greater than 150w. I removed the in-line electronics because I only used a17w LED bulb and the electronics made the bulb flicker.

the touch switch is at the lamp base. it won't work by touching anywhere else.

Probably not since it recommends 100W 3-way bulb. FYI, my 3-way simply does not work so I am just using it as a regular 100W.

I'm not sure. It won't work the 3-way bulb like the lamp is designed, but it should still work as a dimmer with whatever bulb is in the lamp.

This is a socket for three-way bulbs. If your lamp takes three-way bulbs with a chain pull, then it will work. I usually just leave the bottom portion of the socket attached to the lamp, and swap out the inner working with the switch (the part that usually goes bad). You can either use the new top portion, or the one from the original socket. Always unplug the lamp before working on it.

If you have the correct USB cable, yes. Item does not include a "lighting" cable.

My 3-way switch stopped working, which is why I went to this option. But it seems like a 3-way switch would work once you got the lamp turned on with the foot switch. The foot switch is just for ON/OFF.

I bought three of these lamps and use 3 way bulbs in all of them with no problems. Since they advertise use with 3 way bulbs, there may be a malfunction with your lap.

We use a three-way Bulb you would have to ask the manufacturer of the lamp about your other questions as I would not know that.

It could, but you would have to leave the 3-way switches in the 'ON' position.Once any of the three switches are changed to the 'OFF' position there would be no power to the outlet/Heath device.Best to plug into a constant power source.The same applies to a floor or table lamp that has an in-line switch. That switch would have to be in the 'ON' position. We have three instances of this in our house.

Yes. Just tap the center where it say on/off...however this is my third lamp and all three are they come on and go by themself

Only if the lamp has a metal body and you have a way to wire it correctly. The wiring needs to run through the base and you need a way to connect the sensors wire to the lamp body. I would not recommend trying to convert a non-touch lamp unless you really are familiar with how these work.

No it's not a touch lamp. I've had both types of lamps and prefer not the touch ones as the touch sensor gets weak very quickly.
