The description says "E26 base not included." Do I need one to use this, or is that base something that's only needed to use a different type of bulb?

You do not need E26 base to use with the bulb that comes with this product. Kit come complete.

I'm not really sure what an E26 base is, but this product came with everything that I needed to set it up and use it.

Dear, the bulb for this light is Bulb Base E26/E27, you should be able to find it from online shop or locally.

It's a typo in the ad copy. This adapter/reducer is for an E26 U.S. "standard" base bulb to an E12 U.S candelabra base bulb. It will work just fine for that purpose. F.Y.I.--The "E" stands for "Edison" screw base bulbs and the number is the diameter in mm of the screw base. There are many speciality bulbs but the most common bases in the U.S. are E12 candelabra, E17 intermediate, E26 standard or medium and E39 mogul. Walt answered on December 18, 2012

Check out this part number on Amazon 73564. This is the base/fixture. The only draw back is you have to buy the same brand of lights to work with that fixture. This fixture only has power on one end. We bought some and had to run wires to both ends to make the LED T8 bulbs light up. We looked and looked and this was the best option we could find.

Sorry don't really know but think the base has the number for replacement bulb.

Yes. E26 refers to size of bulb. Most light bulbs are E26, or medium base. It does not need to be a halogen.

Sorry I don't know. You have to look at your old bulb and compare it with pictures of the base of the bulb on sale. That's howI I did mine with no problems.

It's an E11 used only for small halogen bulbs. I don't believe there is any other bulbs that use an E11 socket. You can adapt an E11 to E12 (candelabra base). I replaced the socket with a standard E19 socket. The other limiting factors are the diameter of the shade opening (small) and its depth. I was able to get 40W equiv LED ceiling fan bulb to fit. If you go that way, be sure to get a bulb rated for enclosed fixtures. In short, it's possible, but difficult. The manufacturer needs to update the light assembly since a 75W or 100W halogen uses up to 10X what an equivalent LED bulb would, has a much shorter life, and produces unecessary heat.

Is e27 a standard socket? I don't know what socket I have but a regular light bulb fits into the lamp I just bought. Thanks

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.

I believe so. As long as the base of the bulb will screw into the socket. Basically this means the base should be a standard USA screw-in incandescent bulb that has a base type of E26. E stands for Edison screw-in and the 26 means that the base is 26 millimeters. E27 is the European standard screw-in size. (note: EagleLight part numbers that contain 'E27' sold in North America will fit E26 sockets and in many cases support voltages from 85VAC to 220VAC)

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

That is the most common 'standard' medium base light bulb, the E27. Can you use "any" E27? The small LED may not draw enough amperage to make the electronics work. I used the sensor to control low wattage outdoor lighting and it worked fine.

This does fit a standard socket base. if the fixture is not to short or to tight you can use in the enclosed fixture. Bulb is taller and base is a little thicker than a regular bulb.

The bulb needed is a 40 watt G16.5 decorative bulb with an E12 candelabra base. I ordered the bulb directly by searching on Amazon. I imagine they could also be found wherever candelabra or chandeliers are sold. I bought several to have on hand.

It should have said E-26 base so everyone can get it. Three 100w equiv. CREE LED bulbs here....they only draw less than 50 watts total so no fear of fire or heat damage.....very bright.

Just a standard A lamp with an E27 base works. Love the lanterns, great BBQ lighting!Enjoy.
