In the item description it says "Fits for all standard bulb". Does that mean incandescent only and not LED or CFL twist type bulbs?

It will make the g24 base fit the standard g26 bulb base. Regardless if the bulb you use is incandescent, cfl, or led. Its the base that makes it compatible.

I am using it with an LED light bulb. Fits all standard bulbs is describing the opening that you screw the bulb into. I hope that helps

These are designed for Incandescent bulbs only. They make other dimmers for dimmable CFL bulbs & other dimmers for Led bulbs. There are many brands of dimmers. You really need to check out the MFG's recommendations when buying dimmers.

I am so confused about the types of bulbs they sell I can"t give you an answer. The one I got was the wrong one. At least they didn't as for me to return the bulb. They just sent the refund.

there are special dimmer for LED it should say on the box if they are compatible. the difference is LED's cannot go as low as a regular bulbs, so led dimmer have an adjustment for that.

These bulbs have standard bases. They fit my fixtures just fine, but several of them did not work.

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

I'm going to say I don't know because I couldn't find CFL bulbs to fit. This uses a short bulb which are provided with the lamp. I wanted something frosted, so I purchased regular bulbs.

These are spiral, compact, fluorescent, bulbs. The name, mini-twist, is misleading. It doesn't mean anything to me. From my experience, these are nothing more than standard, spiral, fluorescent bulbs. I was looking for this kind of bulb with a very small base to screw into a floor lamp I have. The base of these bulbs is to big to work in my floor lamp. I think the bulb I was looking for has a candelabra base.

Responded a minute ago saying will work but suggesting you look at LED bulbs. Just noticed the picture of the item and noted a Candelabra base. If this is so I would stick with the flourescent twist bulb. I have not had much luck with the candelabra base LED. One thing you will have to make sure of is space. The Flourescent bulbs will not physically fit in a space designed for a torch flame style bulb. LED torch flame bulbs will but do not put off much light unless you get a 25 watt 75 watt incandescent equivalent.

No, this version is only for the special lamps. There is another bulb that will fit regular lamps

My fixture is labeled for up to 100 watt bulb. Standard base. I have been using a 40 watt standard base incandescent bulb for accent lighting. This size bulb fits with very little space between the bulb and the back of the fixture if you were thinking to use any bulb that might be larger than the old standard incandescent ones.

It does not work with incandescent bulbs. It is an OEM replacement for certain lamps.

It takes most standard incandescent bulbs except for the ones that have multiple brightness settings. It does not work with the compact fluorescent bulbs even though they fit in the socket.

The shade is meant to clip on standard bulb. CFL bulbs come in many formats so may not work. I used new led bulbs that do come in standard format. They draw 8.5 watts and give 75 watts of light. Electric company paid for half so the cost me $5.00 and tested to last 22.5 years. hope that helps.

I tried using some LED bulbs in this lamp, and they did not fit. To be sure, not all LED bulbs are the same shape, but the issue was that the bulbs I tried to use had a flared ceramic rim just above the screw thread; that ceramic rim was too wide for the harp on this lamp, preventing the bulb from being screwed in. You may find some LED bulbs that fit, but I didn't.

It fits with an A19 led bulb with a standard base. What I use for this fixture is a 60W equivalent from traditional incandescents but only consumes 9 watts. You can check it out here: Triangle Bulbs T95121-6 (6 pack) - LED Dimmable 60 Watt Equivalent Warm White A19 Light Bulbs, 6 pack

I don't know if they changed the design (I bought mine a year ago), but I got all the information I needed about the bulb type to use from the paperwork that came in the package. Mine took a screw-in bulb. I'd read all the paperwork, then start looking for a phone number if that didn't answer your question.
