This is not just the bulb correct? And what if I want to use this for indoors? And not floating or water at all?

No, it is not just the bulb. It is encased in a clear plastic sphere (glued.) I do not think it would work well indoors because the battery is only charged by the sun. It needs several hours in the sun (I think they said at least 6 hrs) so the only way to use indoors, I suspect, would be to put it outside in the sun all day and then bring it in at night. Hope this helps.

Funny! I have mine in a place where the light doesn't project... I may think about moving it!

I'm pretty sure the instructions said it can only be indoors; these Philips lights aren't meant to be used in humid areas either. I can't use them in the bathroom.

We use ours inside so not sure. If rather bulb is in an in closed fixture and/or under the house' serves, it should be ok.

Its a LED bulb that will last hundreds of hours - there is a super tiny screw at the base where the light bulb housed, but I would guess from looking at it the answer is no. I love mine!

This lamp may not meet your desires. I use only the bulb that came with the lamp. A larger bulb may not be safe. J

If you read the VERY fine print on the box, it says "This lamp is not suitable for totally enclosed fixtures". Unfortunately, you cannot find this information anywhere on the Phillips site (or on Amazon). You first have to buy the bulb, take delivery, and read the fine print (on the bottom of the box, no less) before deciding whether to return for a refund or, like we did, repurpose the bulb(s) for use in lamps or other open fixtures. There are other manufacturers out there that DO have LED bulbs that are suitable for enclosed fixtures and damp environments like bathrooms.

Check your power source. Make sure it's strong enough. Maybe you just got a bad bulb ! Mine is still working fine.

I would try a known good light bulb. If that doesn't work return it the sockets broken if that does work it's probably a bad bulb.

If the light is on and the water flows through it, then it is functioning properly. You should check to see if there is no water in the glass bulb compartment.

Not that I am qualified to answer an issue like this (I did not make it) but if it happened to me, I'd arrange for a return - the bulbs are fantastic though my 2 are still going strong! Try to get a refund - don't take a chance with faulty lighting - it could cost $$$ in the long run.

I'm guessing that water would cool the bulb as well as, if not better than, air...But I dont really know. I use them in a more traditional way.

Be sure the lightbulb in the base is okay, and not loose. We had to leave our lamp on for a long time before the contents would flow. Also, contact the company as they were good about replacing the first lamp we received. We were told the lamps do not ship well in cold weather, but the second lamp has been fine.

The bulbs inside the lamp are not fixed firmly. They are attached to a spring which is inserted into the actual space in the salt then it expands. One of them had completely come out when I received them. I have bought this kind of lamp before and the chord coming out of the lamp is securely attached to the base which hold the whole thing safely. I think these lamps are not safe

you are ok w/ respect to wattage; however, plse bear in mind that this is a very large bulb and bulb needs wide fixture & room "to breathe" for best function; also make sure that shade is wide enough for this bulb's dimensions with extra room "to breathe"......

Idk about ul listed but any light will work in the bathroom as long as its not in direct contact with water or 90% humidity all the time

Looks like its just the bulb. Mine is great. You cant even hear the thing running. I mounted mine in the shower.
