what type of bulb would be best for uplighting with this product?

I put a color changing LED bulb in it behind my HDTV for backlighting. It takes regular household bulbs, incandescent, CFL and LED, but it is not recommended for any bulb that would exceed 50 watts. Most LEDs do not get anywhere near that.

I used regular incandescent bulbs. But I think you could use LEDs also. Hope that helps. It adds a lot of light to my daughters desk. She loves it!!

You can use candelabra bulbs or the decorative globe ones. Check this one, it's what I use and it's awesome. Love the light and the quality Triangle Bulbs T90020 (Pack of 2) G16 Decorative Globe Light Bulbs 300 Lumen 5-watt LED Light Bulb with E26 Base, Color 3000K, Dimmable, UL Listed, Energy star certified,

We use an ordinary incandescent bulb and it works just fine. Great light, we love it. It is on our detached garage and gets brighter as we walk past it to the house and then dims to half bright.

I have a regular household light bulb in mine so I would guess a medium base led would work. Hope that helped.

Sorry I am not an expert on bulb types. Al I can say is that I replaced my original candelabra bulbs with this bulb and the result is phenomenal. I only need two of them to light up the dining room. I used to have 6 25-watt and 6 7-watt bulbs. YOu can figure out the savings on electricity. The illumination from the 12-watt LED bulb is brighter than the 192-watt total that used to light up the space.

You could use a fluorescent bulb that works in a standard lamp. I use a LED bulb in mine.

I would use 100W light bulbs at the least if no other light source is available. Also, the light you use must NOT be of the flourescent type. You only really need the required light around the Chrony ;^)

I use 40 watt E12 bulb and it has lasted for many years in lights at our house. Cost is not high, see Amazon for costs.

Look for a compact flourescent bulb that is in the 6500k spectrum which is best for plant growth. Something like the Zoo Med UltraSun Daylight Compact Flourescent sold on amazon for about 8 bucks.
