Does this lamp work with non ottlite bulbs

I would certainly NOT recommend trying it! A new lamp costs a lot more than a bulb!

I would think that any bulb would work as long as it fit... Mine has not burned out yet, but my aunt has one and she told me that any brand of bulb would work...

Ottlite bulbs are designed for this lamp only, and they are excellent. If you google them, you will see why. I have had two of these lamps and have been very satisfied with the performance.

No. It is a very small base. Smaller than standard bulbs and a little larger than candabra base.

Yes, but I wouldn't purchase this lamp. Mine only lasted a few weeks before it shorted out and stopped working.

Hi Julie, I bought the lamp for my daughter so I'm not sure. I will ask her and let you know

Yes, Mary, it does. That is precisely what I am using it in. This is my 2nd replacement bulb for this lamp. Since I use my lamp, almost, exclusively, for reading in bed, it lasts for a long time.

that is a great question---I do not know the answer. You'd better google the differenttypes of lamp bases. I use it with a regular old light bulb that you use with any lamp.

Yes. That's the only type of lamp I've ever used with it and it works great.

This lamp may not meet your desires. I use only the bulb that came with the lamp. A larger bulb may not be safe. J

The base of the bulb is a standard size fit so the style is really up to you as long as it does not exceed the wattage. (The lamp comes with bulbs)

No, it doesn't. This lamp requires candelabra lamps which are cheaper if you buy the incadescent bulbs, but can be expensive if you are looking for power saving kinds.

Yes but it uses a specality bulb by Ott. I've uploaded a picture of the bulb if you look under customer images.

Yes it does but there for a smaller socket bulb. You can't use a standard bulb

This will only work in the OLDER STYLE OTT lights. The newer ones have an "E" on the label meaning they have an electronic ballast. This bulb will NOT start with the E but works fine in my older light for which it is made. Using the wrong bulb will burn out your lamp and then you will have to throw it away. I wrote the seller months ago that they were supplying the wrong product after I tried it and looked up the part number they supplied but apparently they do not care.

It will not use regular bulbs. I had to order E12's from Amazon as I couldn't find them locally.

as long as it is a 13 watt bulb, it should work. from my limited research, most of the Ott-Light desk lamps all take the 13watt bulb, which it looks like yours does. i truly hope this is helpful to you. ;&gt;)

The one I purchased did not work in our OTT lite. We eventually got rid of that lamp and purchased a different one.

Yes, any standard lamp with any kind of light bulb will work with this product.
