Can it be used with a 13W CFL?

yeah, I have a 60w incandescent in mine, so I wouldn't see why a CFL wouldn't work.

Yes, but CFL worked better for me on this fixture. I'd really recommend using a 100W equivalent CFL bulb. It worked best for me in terms of lighting (that is, if you want your light to be bright but also very relaxing for the eyes) and this bulb, specifically, is really durable and energy efficient.

It can use either a 60 watt or 13w CFL. I am using both and the light is good.

I use a cfl and it works fine. I think the "traditional" bulb for this lamp is more indirect, but the socket is a standard size, so you should be able to screw anything into it.

The warning label on the bulb socket states "Maximum 13 Watts" with a picture of a CFL Bulb below it, it's safe to say, no, most likely not.

Yes it will work on CFL and I use two 7 watts candelabra lightbulbs. The 40 watt load doesn't seem to come in play. The great part about the switch, it keeps the time and does not need to be reset if the electricity goes out.

This fixture utilizes an incandescent (150watt max.) or CFL (13-15watt)bulb; the bulb will not show (would suggest a short style).

Yes it will, no problem. LEDs are better though. Cfls have a very poor power factor and are less efficient.

I would say no with one exception. CFL and LED bulbs are still rated in terms of the wattage an incandescent bulb with the same lumens (brightness) rating would consume. So, for example, a 5000K, 1500 lumems CFL bulb would draw 32 to 35 watts, well under 60 watts, even though it is consider equivalent to a 100 watt incandescent. I've used such CFLs with no problems.

I don't know for sure. But I have used it with 4x 85w CFL bulbs with no problems. Hope that helps.

I would assume so. It just provides power to your fixture, so if your fixture can do CFL, then you should be fine.

yes it should work well especially is the bulbs are standard bulbs. The only small issue I have found Is when using on a CFL bulb when you turn the switch completely off the light will still occasionally flicker at a very low light. It is not a huge issue. When using standard bulbs this is not a problem.

Looks like it's rated for 1000 watts so I think it will work. It's not like the CFL bulbs need starters.

The CFL/LED designation means it will work with low watt lamps, regardless of the lamp base. There should be no problems.

Thank you for your responses. Does CFL have to do with the size of the base? Is that why it wouldn't be compatible Raymond?

It doesn't work on my CFL. I either need to find a CFl that fits these or return them.

It should work fine. We use this bulb in all of our table lamps. The bulb is a little bit longer, but that has not been a problem. Also we could remove all the harp spreaders we had installed to allow cfl's to be used.
