Flame Effect

Question 1

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 2

I'm replacing a bulb and see a lot of letters and numbers on the base. What do these light bulb base codes like E26, GU10, or G13 mean?

Accepted Answer

Light bulb base codes indicate the type of connector and the size of the bulb's base, ensuring it fits correctly into your fixture. The “E” denotes a standard screw-in Edison base, like the common E26. At the same time, “GU” usually signifies a bi-pin connector often found in track lighting and spotlights, and “G” is usually the most popular of the common bi-pin base types. Understanding these codes prevents buying the wrong bulb and ensures safe, reliable lighting.

Question 3

I'm looking to brighten up my kitchen island. What are some popular shape options, and what are they good for?

Accepted Answer

Globe bulbs offer a wide, even light distribution for kitchen islands, perfect for general illumination. In contrast, reflector bulbs can direct light downwards, which is ideal for highlighting specific areas like countertops. Consider the overall aesthetic of your space when making your choice.

Question 4

What are twist & lock and bayonet bases, and how are they different from screw-in bases?

Accepted Answer

Twist & lock bases, often seen in recessed lighting and some outdoor fixtures, don't screw in but instead lock into place by inserting and turning. bayonet bases, recognized by their cylindrical shape and side pins, are commonly used in older fixtures and some specialty appliances. They don't use the traditional threaded screw-in design, so check the fixture before purchase.
