Is this ceramic? Want to use for 100watt heat bulb

No, I don't think that would be safe. The housing is plastic and it has a warning for a 40 watt bulb max.

It is not ceramic but the housing the lightbulb is entirely exposed so there should be no issue with wattage other than the capacity of your line/circuit.

I can't remember if it is or not. But I'm not sure that a 100 watt heat bulb is any hotter than a regular 100 watt bulb and the heat would be directed away from the mounting because it's a flood light, so I'd think it's rated fine for that.

the socket part is metal surounded by a plastic case I wouldnt use a Heat lamp it will melt the plastic

Yes, these fixtures are rated for 100 watt max. I have installed all LEDs in mine to minimize having to replace the bulbs very often.

I am not sure if it is. I would probably reach out to the manufacturer of the item and see. I use the typically 110volt wall socket for it.

I read the directions on the box, and it say that the product is not made for use with ceramic heat emitter, but it does not say the reason. I think it will be too warm and would be a fire hazard, when i use the two lights at the same time, the temperature stays around 80 degrees.

Hi Walter, I don't believe the bulbs are LED. I use these for lighting ceramic Christmas houses. So its obvious the ceramic house can handle the heat from the bulbs. But i don't see why you couldn't use a LED since the cord is a simple power cord supplying the power for the bulb. Maybe trying to buy an inexpensive led bulb to try it out. Hope all works out for you.

I'm sure you can find a 12v 50 watt bulb that will fit, but I don't know if the enclosure will be able to handle the additional heat that will be produced. If you're looking for brighter, I would try to find an LED bulb that will produce less heat.

bulb is standard H4 removable/replacable, probably able to handle 100w bulb *, reflector is a hard (thermoset?) plastic, lens is glass*

I believe that has to be a misprint. A 100 watt bulb would be too bright as well as too hot. I have a 13 watt fluorescent bulb in mine that is equivalent to the light output of a 60 watt incandescent bulb. If you chose to go with an incandescent bulb. I would not go higher that 40 watts.

I believe this bulb can be safely used in a 150 W fixture. Look for the watts used on the base of the bulb. The writing on the base of my bulb says that is actually draws 60 W which is only 40% of the rating for you fixture.

No, it is not Energy Star certified. But there are not any standard bulb shaped 100 watt equivalent LED bulbs out except this one.

That is 100 watts per socket. But since 100 incandescent are extinct, I've been using 60's and it looks very nice. Now they're going extinct too. I hate CFLs. Poisonous Mercury in them.

As far as I can tell I believe it is. I bought this because it was for 100watts or less. I do know that there are heavier duty ones for greater wattage.I'm using it for two dimmable LED 4.8 watt bulbs. Works well to a point and then it's either on or off. It says it will work with up to 250 watts incandescent.Basically I've replaced two 40 watt incandecent with two led bulbs. Works great.

I took out the lightbulb and checked. It's certainly not plastic. I'd guess it was ceramic because it seems too coarse to be porcelain.

Hi, it's not a ceramic heater. It's all plastic. I use it for limited runs to take the chill off my bedroom, and never leave it running for more than 20 minutes. The plug does get hot at the wall socket, which worries me and caused me to put the time limit on run periods.

yes I purchased the LED bulbs and we really like them. The output is great for us. I don't know if it is actually equivalent to a 100 watts. But I would purchase more if needed

Yes, just make sure its made for higher heat levels. It uses a standard screw in socket. Like a light bulb.

No, the bulb is a heat lamp unless you replace it with a normal bulb. They do make a clear heat lamp that is really bright instead of the red one.
