Question 1

I have a floor lamp that needs a new bulb. It uses one of those long bulbs. Are there different types, and what are they best suited for?

Accepted Answer

For floor lamps, you might find tubular or linear bulbs, known for their elongated shape and ability to provide a spread-out light. Tubular bulbs tend to be used more for decorative fixtures, while linear bulbs provide light for larger areas. Always check the base type and wattage to ensure compatibility with your lamp.

Question 2

What are bi-pin and 4-pin bases, and what are they used for?

Accepted Answer

Bi-pin bases, including the miniature and medium bi-pin, have two small pins that push into a socket commonly used for halogen or some LED bulbs in undercabinet lighting or desk lamps. 4-pin bases, with their four pins, are often found in fluorescent and compact fluorescent (CFL) bulbs; they are designed for fixtures requiring a more secure connection and may need specific ballast compatibility.

Question 3

What are dusk to dawn light bulbs, and where would they be most useful for my home?

Accepted Answer

Dusk to dawn bulbs have a built-in sensor that automatically turns the light on at dusk and off at dawn, providing convenience and enhanced security. These are ideal for outdoor fixtures like porch lights or landscape lighting, ensuring you always have light when needed without worrying about flipping a switch.

Question 5

I'm looking for energy-efficient options. What are the benefits of using EcoSmart light bulbs?

Accepted Answer

EcoSmart light bulbs are designed to save energy and reduce your electricity bill, often using LED technology, while producing the same brightness as traditional incandescent bulbs. Beyond lower energy consumption, EcoSmart bulbs have a longer lifespan, meaning fewer replacements and less hassle for homeowners.

Question 6

For bulbs labeled A19, A15, and A21, what does the "A" mean, and how do those numbers relate to the bulb?

Accepted Answer

The "A" refers to the traditional, pear-shaped bulb, a common style for homes. The number indicates the bulb's diameter at its widest point, in eighths of an inch, so an A19 bulb is 19/8 inches wide, an A21 is slightly larger at 21/8 inches, and an A15 is smaller at 15/8. Knowing this helps when choosing the right size for your fixtures and the light needed.
