Can an energy efficient bulb be used with this lamp? If so, what size and where can I find it?

yes. they are a candelabra base and you can find them in most hardware stores, i.e.: lowes, home depot, local hardware, etc.....melissa in upstate new york.

No not that I know of. But you can put a low 40 wat and it puts off plenty of light.

I dont believe so. Honestly the bulbs are included with the lamp and I just use those. They are the long pointy ones. Dont think they are energy efficient.

Hi, thanks for posting your question. According to the product information available, this lamp uses (5) x 25 Watt Candelabra Base Bulbs or CFL equivalent. For future reference, this information is located to the right of the product picture on the Product Page. I hope this is helpful!

According to the material that came with the lamp, you are only supposed to use a 40 w bulb, and it has to be small enough to fit in the shade. It isn't really bright enough for what I use it for, but . . . .

Standard bulb fits... just don't use 100 watt because it will "melt" the lamp!

Check the product specs for this item at Amazon; this lamp takes a 100w 3 way bulb. So you can't exceed 100W. I'm using only a single 6w bulb in mine and it's fine.

We used 60W light bulbs (one for each lampshade). We did not try the energy efficient bulbs but I'm pretty sure you can use them.

I'd really recommend that you use LED bulbs for this lamp because it doesn't heat up. Also, using a 40W equivalent LED Globe bulb worked best for me in terms of lighting (that is, if you want your light to be bright but also very relaxing for the eyes) and this bulb, specifically, is really durable and energy efficient.

The closest would be an 11 watt but the lamp is physically larger, 1-3/4" as compared to 1-3/8". Also it would be twice as long. Feel free to call 317-782-8362 if you have additional question. John

I have used 50-250 trilight bulbs in a similar lamp with no problem. I do not have a bulb that size at the moment to try in new lamp but I see no reason why you could not use one. I checked my lamp and there is no specifications to the maximum wattage. There is lots of room for air flow and the shade is open. I see no problem at all.

inside there is a glass bottle upside down, that threads to the bottom of the lamp. Think about a glass jar with a round bottom to cover the light bulb.You can use any light bulb up to 60 watts I think. I use the spiral daylight 13 watts and they look great.You can use any regular light bulb up to 60 watts I think.

I think most of the new led bulbs can be used in any lamp. Although I am not using one in this particular lamp I am using them in several standard 110 volt sockets

I use the 25 watt Bulbrite in both of mine. I had the smaller bulbs but they didn't last very long. I turn both my lamps on during the day and sometimes I forget to turn the one in the kitchen off. :)

I use a cfl and it works fine. I think the "traditional" bulb for this lamp is more indirect, but the socket is a standard size, so you should be able to screw anything into it.

I am using a 40W equivalent LED bulb and it's actually good. I highly recommend it, too, because it doesn't heat up (which makes it safer to use), and it's really energy efficient. The lighting is brighter and pleasing too, compared to the others I've tried. Hope it helps!

yes i would use the recommended incandescent.. however you can use a halogen or led bulb which are more energy efficient .
