Is there an insert you can buy which would allow you to use regular 60 watt bulbs vs those little candelabra bulbs?

you can buy 3-Pack E12 to E26 / E27 Adapter - Converts Chandelier Socket (E12) to Medium Socket (E26/E27) to convert candelabra sockets to regular 60 watt bulb sockets

we have placed 60 watt incandescent bulbs in our fixture. 60 watt with candelabra base can be a bit difficult to find. They work fine so far; no evidence of overheating of the fixture. However, we have been using them only a few weeks, so I cannot comment on long term use.

You can use any standard candelabra light. I personally used the candelabra led lights

I used candelabera lights. I already had them but you could find them anywhere including Lowes and Home Depot or even Walmart.

Yep, the candelabra base bulb available in incandescent, CFL and LED. I personally prefer the Lowes store brand "Utilitec" CFL (curly bulb) as these bulbs produce the majority of their light at power-on, unlike other brands that advertise "Instant On" and don't deliver. For this particular light fixture, the 60w (soft light) curly works well. For color matching clothes or just an interesting look, try the "Natural Light" bulb which simulates the light entering through a north facing window. This is a solid fixture that I added to an old 70s vintage fan and the color matches very well.

You can use a larger LED or CFL bulb. You just can not exceed the total lamp wattage of 150 watts. So if you added 2 Philips 100 watt EQUIVALENT LED bulbs it would be fine because the bulbs do not actually use 150 watts of power. Your only limitation is the size of the bulb.

As noted these are E12 base (candelabra) bulbs. But can be used in regular sockets by getting an E12 socket adapter.

The light bulb socket is a candelabra style base. I couldn't find that style base in any size bigger than 40W. That's why I switched to a CFL bulb. Those bulbs put out more light and use less watts.

A 40 watt bulb works fine. You can buy regular bulbs almost anywhere like grocery store, hardware, Target, etc.

There are other choices but my lighting fixtures will not accommodate other size bulbs. Look at Lowe's or Home Depot for similar thread type and you will find something less expensive.

no, you'd never get those big bulbs in (well maybe two on opposing sides)I'd look at the Linco Flora X Lights, they hold 4 bulbs, aren't expensive and come with a nice softbox.

I found them at my local hardware store (Orchard). The 'candelabra' type of bulb will fit. However I tried a larger wattage (slightly - their manual says 25w max - I found that 40 would work without it getting too hot). The light is still not bright enough to be very useful.

yes I am using a 5 = 60 watt led bulb in one .The adapter converts a candelabra bulb base to a standard lamp size bulb .It does add about 1 1/2 inch length to the bulb fixture so make sure your bulb will fit if it's in a globe though.

these are candelabra bulbs. they will NOT fit a standard light socket without an adapter.

Sure can. I have four 60-watt equivalent bulbs in mine right now. There is plenty of room inside the globes...you could even put larger ones in there.

I used 20 watt candelabra bulbs, it takes 3 and is pretty brite with even with the lower watt bulbs. Lamp really is a nice piece to add I used 2 in bedroom with matching black shade crystal chandelier

I tried a 60w regular bulb and might have been able to get it in but it would really be tight and I was afraid I might break it. A higher wattage bulb might work if it has a longer neck.
