Does a 3-way bulb have to be used? A regular 100-watt for example won't work on this lamp?

This lamp has a 60 watt maximum bulb recommended. So a 3 way or 100 watt bulb will not work.

Personally I only use a 75-watt bult because that's enuf brightness in that location. Never used a 3-way bulb in this lamp.

No. I use either a 60 or 75 watt bulb with a lamp touch control. You can purchase from any home improvement store for about $10.00. It will convert the lamp into a three-way light.

It has a 3-way switch on it. You can use a regular bulb but it will still cycle through the 3-way switching. Your bulb probably won't light on the first click, then will turn on on the second, and it will take two more clicks to turn it off. It doesn't affect that lamp that I know of but you are probably paying something extra for the 3-way feature.

We use a three-way Bulb you would have to ask the manufacturer of the lamp about your other questions as I would not know that.

No, a 3-way bulb will make no difference. I believe you can use a regular 100-watt bulb. I have 75 in mine.

Mine does not have a 3 way switch. I cant imagine how any lamp could. The manufacturer has safety guidlines. I have used a 60 watt bulb in mine

My 3-way switch stopped working, which is why I went to this option. But it seems like a 3-way switch would work once you got the lamp turned on with the foot switch. The foot switch is just for ON/OFF.

It supports 3-way bulbs but has in-line electronics that is supposed to keep the lamp from working with wattage greater than 150w. I removed the in-line electronics because I only used a17w LED bulb and the electronics made the bulb flicker.

I never tried them with a three-way bulb, but if you buy a three-way bulb, to my knowledge, it should work in any lamp. Hope this was helpful.

For my tastes, yes. I use the recommended 3-way (80/100/150 watt) bulb, and I have yet to use the brightest setting. The shade is a bit hazy by design, which does mute the light a bit. I'm pleased with the lamp. I use it primarily for indirect light in a fairly large room.

The label says you can use a max of 150 watt type A bulbs. I am using 72 watt clear Halogen bulbs and they put out plenty of light. It is NOT a 3-way lamp.

This switch is just a 2 position - On & Off. A 3-way bulb requires a different type switch.You could use this to turn power on to a lamp, and then use the lamp switch to select the 3-way brightness level

Why? It only has 1 output (full) and while any standard bulb will FIT a 3 way socket, you only get the single level. 3 way bulbs have 2 filaments instead of one so it's the bulb that changes output, not the socket.Besides, this is a Photographic bulb with Daylight color and hi CRI so I don't understand why you are using it for room illumination.

The box says you can use a 100W bulb.I use a 60w cree led dimmable bulb in two of them.Just make sure it's dimmable or regular and not a three way.

I would only use the maximum the lamps states. You might risk overheating and causing an electric short. The lamp is very reflective and should not need a 100 watt bulb.

My lamps work for the 3 way lighting. I used the bulbs as specified and they work. Your bulb or lamp may be damaged. If the lamps are, try exchanging.

Not on this swithck if you have a 3 way bulb. If you put a basic bulb in, you will just have to turn the swith more to get it to turn on then off.

Never tried 3-way bulb. However, a change in the type of screw-in base wouldn't have any effect on a 3-way bulb - the current is still the same.

Yes. I use a 3 way bulb and it works fine. I love the looks of the lamps. They fix perfect with my decor.

This module has dimming capability. It will work in your 3 way lamp with a regular bulb. You can dim or brighten to whatever intensity you desire. No need to be restricted to set wattage.

It uses a three way bulb but I have had no luck with the new three way bulbs.
