Can the bulb work wnen the tip is pointing up?

I have it on a small lamp with an open top. It sits on a bench in my entrance way and when I walk up to it or down the stairs it senses movement and turns on.

Dear MikeYes the sensor might be facing towards the direction where motion will occur. So i believe it should be pointting downwardsBest regardsStacy @ ChiChinLighting

From my experience, any things is moving in front of the sensor about 45 degree and up to 10 feet will work. Make sure you set up the bulb with object moving in front of sensor (the tip for the bulb)

It definitely works pointing "sideways" (have a socket on the side of a garage wall).

I would think so since the tip is replaceable. Their might be a manufacturer's defect.

oh um the regular pointed bulb ones, however, ill say this, one went out and when i replaced it, i have no idea how or why but it will not dim anymore, i did have an issue with one of the screw things that hold up the frillies and i think somthing happened inside so its on full light and i just put it on a switch, it is still stunning, and i still love it!!!!! but yeah the pointed regular bulbs you can get anywhere......

I tried one in my lamp - and it worked. You might check to make sure the bulb is completely twisted into in the socket so that the bottom of the bulb is making good contact with the socket.

check the end tabs. Probably are too long. It is actually the wrong bulb for the lamp. It can be modified to work if carefully trimmed.

send it back for a refund. You need both prongs in order for the bulb to work. :) Hope this helps.

Yes. You can rotate the light up and down- so it points farther in the distance or closer to your feet. It stays where you point it very wellReese is incorrect.

Sorry I can't help. I threw mine out after it failed to work in the lamp we bought it for. In fairness, I think the lamp was the problem, not the bulb.

you should open up the location where you plan on using it to determine if it is the same style of bulb. Meaning if it has the same prongs. If so, then it will, but make sure the measurements are accurate.

Honestly I have no clue if it would work, neither one of the bulbs worked on mine even though it said they would. I tried to do some minor mods to them like other people said but nothing worked for me.

It takes some tweaking on the adjustments to get them pointed correctly; seems like they are angled higher then they should be when it does project correctly. Also, I put in the stock bulb, and they seem a bit dim, I'd suggest a 'brighter than stock' bulb.

It will only work most likely in the middle position. usually not low and not high. Similar with a regular non 3 way bulb

I have a light kit that has the bulbs pointed upward with glass-surrounds, bulb is open toward the center. Because of this 'flexibility' the much longer LED bulbs do work, SELS was the shortest I could find, the anyray easily the longest. Most LED bulbs have length/diameter in the description, but put simply, you need room for a full inch of 'height' beyond the non-candletip bulb to replace with LED.

I believe you can. I wrote my review prematurely, within a day, this lamp stopped working completely. It may be the bulbs. I haven't had the time to even try to look at it. If you haven't already ordered this, I'd say save your money.

If you use a small screw driver you may be able to lighty lift up the center contact to allow the bulb to connect in the direction you need. Do this only with the POWER OFF to the fixture. It worked for me.

If you do the light will be mounted sideways, but should still work but you won't be able to adjust it up and down.

You need to twist the entire bulb counter clockwise. Many units will require that you ally a little pressure to the bulb and twist at the same time. It will eventually come out.
