Does a 3-way bulb have to be used? A regular 100-watt for example won't work on this lamp?

This lamp has a 60 watt maximum bulb recommended. So a 3 way or 100 watt bulb will not work.

Personally I only use a 75-watt bult because that's enuf brightness in that location. Never used a 3-way bulb in this lamp.

No. I use either a 60 or 75 watt bulb with a lamp touch control. You can purchase from any home improvement store for about $10.00. It will convert the lamp into a three-way light.

It has a 3-way switch on it. You can use a regular bulb but it will still cycle through the 3-way switching. Your bulb probably won't light on the first click, then will turn on on the second, and it will take two more clicks to turn it off. It doesn't affect that lamp that I know of but you are probably paying something extra for the 3-way feature.

We use a three-way Bulb you would have to ask the manufacturer of the lamp about your other questions as I would not know that.

No, a 3-way bulb will make no difference. I believe you can use a regular 100-watt bulb. I have 75 in mine.

Standard bulb fits... just don't use 100 watt because it will "melt" the lamp!

the lamp takes a 3 way bulb, max wattage to 100. I used a bulb that is 40, 60 and 100 watts

I'd have to say probably. Just don't use any lightbulbs over 100 watt. You don't need a 3 -way light bulb to get this to go from low-medium high. This 1 was a lil bigger than the 1 I had and was a tight squeeze in the lamp. Be sure to ck measurements. I am very happy I tried this sensor. Model # didn't match exactly , but it works just fine :)

150 watt is the maximum. It says so on a sticker right on the lamp that I have. The sticker also says to use "type A lamp 3-way or smaller".

Yes, you should be able to. The sticker on the lamp says "100 watt maximum". I have a 13w CFL bulb in mine, and it works just fine.

Hi Nana! It is a beautiful lamp. I don't see any reason those bulbs wouldn't fit. But, get the smaller ones, and the plug-in dimmer thing if you want 3-way.

I actually have 3 light sockets on the exterior of my house. In order to make it work I have to use at least one old regular bulb. According to the instructions it needs to have a minimum wattage being used with it for bulbs (if I remember it was 40 watt minimum) I tried 3 led bulbs (which totaled under 30 watts) and nothing worked. It works with any combination of CFL, LED, and OLD bulbs as long as the above minimum is met.

Well, the socket accepts it, and there are contacts in the socket appropriate for a three way bulb. But, on my two identical lamps it won't do the three way feature. Not sure if the switch is broken or what is preventing the three way feature from working.

It says 3 way but when we used one, it didn't work. I tried 2 different 3-way bulbs.

Yes, it works at all 3 levels. I have a 50/100/150 watt bulb in my 3 way lamp. You do have to use incandescent light bulbs.ks

If you are talking about these lamps, just tap the lamp and it has a 3-way bulb. If you are talking about a different light, you will need a dimmer switch in the wall like for a light hanging over your table.All I can tell you. These lamps worked great for me.

The box says you can use a 100W bulb.I use a 60w cree led dimmable bulb in two of them.Just make sure it's dimmable or regular and not a three way.

no i wouldn't do that if i were you. each socket is basically a completely separate lamp with it's own plug. they don't share any components. having one side on or off does not effect the other side either way. don't do more than 100 watt per side, it could be a fire hazard. i have also read that you shouldn't use ceramic heat emitters with this lamp, only regular heat bulbs and uv bulbs.

This module has dimming capability. It will work in your 3 way lamp with a regular bulb. You can dim or brighten to whatever intensity you desire. No need to be restricted to set wattage.

I would only use the maximum the lamps states. You might risk overheating and causing an electric short. The lamp is very reflective and should not need a 100 watt bulb.

We have 3 touch lamps and use regular 3 way bulbs. Maybe there is something wrong with the lamp.
