These say they're 130V on the page info. I thought that this bulb type should be 120V, and all my night lights say "max 7 watts, 120V". Is the info incorrect, is this bulb really 120V? Thanks.

They are measuring this in volts here, saying that it can be plugged into a 120 volt outlet. The bulbs are only 7 watts and work fine in any night light or Christmas lights. I've purchased many and they are good lights and will last about a year before you will need to replace, maybe longer if you are very careful not to ever jar them as they tend to get more delicate as the filament ages. Hope this helps.

These bulbs are for use with a 12v or 24v system only, they are not for use with a 120v system

Yes, there should be a 12 v transformer on your lighting strip which converts the 110 into 12 v. What kind of bulbs are you replacing these with and what do they say on them?

If they are 110v, I would expect it to work fine. Mine is connected to a single switch that controls 2 outdoor lights. They have regular bulb, but I don't see any difference, it's just turning a circuit on or off.

The current rating is what matters as you can use these at 115V as well as 12V. My application was 360W at 83V so I was running around 4.3Amps. We had no failures in multiple days (probably 20 hours worth or operation). This socket was being heated by the bulb in my application much higher that what you are planning so probably it will take 50W at 12V with no problem.

The SMDs (LEDs) work on 3-3.6V. The current draw is between .02-.03A. There are 12 of these on each bulb. If you take the max values it comes to 1.296W ( 12 x .03 x 3.6). There might be some resistors that might be drawing some power. But overall you are doing way better than the factory bulbs. Update: I did a google search on these LEDs ( 1210). Vendors mention a consumption of .08 W per LED. For 12 it comes to .96W ( 12x.08).

On the bulb it indicates it is a 45W 120V bulb. You can find this at a box sized hardware store like Home Depot or Lowes.

Says 120v/60Hz only, MAX 60 w..using the 220v might cause some heat in the wires, but I am not a certified electrician, so this is just an opinion. I was disappointed with the lamp because it has a thin base that goes against the wall, makes it look cheap, and light socket uses a smaller opening,not the standard opening found in lighting receptacles

Yes. The bulb specs mention 110V. Power in the US is generally around 117V, and items rated 110-130 volts should work with the US power grid.

"20 volt bulb" i would suspect they are noting you should buy a 20 volt bulb to use with this 18 volt "system". else you'll burn out bulbs faster. similar to purchasing 130 volt bulbs to use in 120 volt AC house voltages. they will last longer and stand up to more abuse. All that being said, we can no longer purchase incandescent type bulbs, but you get the point...

I just checked the actual bulb and it says 60w. Although it seems like its 40w because it's not as bright as a "regular" bulb. So if you want one that looks 40w then it's the right one.

I am using the same bulb in my outdoor lights and have no issues. That being said i don't remember the box markings but worst case scenario is it just won't work if it actually needs 85 - 265v and you put it in a 12v system.

I don't know. I am currently using a 4 watt nightlight bulb instead of the 7 watt recommended though.

Check out here first:http://www.lampsplus.com/light-bulbs/This lamp takes any type of bulbs that has same interface as the "standard household Incandescent A-type light bulb". On the sticker it says "MAX 15W medium base type A". So if you want to use standard household A-type bulb, maximum power is 15W because the lamp top is made of plastic and high power bulbs will melt the top. I'm using a 60W LED Bi-directional LED bulb from COSTCO and it's fantastic.

The ones I bought are 110v and work great. They are being used in outdoor lighting fixtures that are controlled by a timer. Turns out they do attract bugs, so different bulbs with a different color spectrum of light might be better for outdoors. Otherwise, no complaints and my electricity consumption has been cut from 240 watts for 4 hours a night to 24 watts for four hours a night, sweet. Good luck.

These bulbs work in 120v lamps and put off 25 watts of light. We used them in my wife's make-up mirror.The higher the wattage the brighter the light will be with incandescent bulbs.Hope this helps!

I'm not sure of the wattage, and have not had any of the problems others have had. My electric bill hasn't changed much so I think it's doing what it's supposed to. Also, My bulb is still going strong after months of daily use. It is at full brightness as soon as I turn it on. My light is on from 7am until 5-6pm 5days a week. Occasionally it's off for 30 min here and there, but it's always as bright as the day I got it. Luv luv luv my bulb.
