what size can do I need for this bulb

If you mean the size of the recessed lighting can, then 6 inches in diameter is probably necessary. The bulb is 5 inches in diameter, and fit fine in our 6-in fixtures.

Vicki, I am out of town at the moment. I will measure tomorrow. I can tell you that these arelarge indoor over the counter cans in a kitchen. Old incandescent Philips BR40 from Home Depot or Lowes are what were in these. These are the right color light but slightly brighter which suits my husband and me well. I will send you the can measurement tomorrow.

The measurement at the opening (the visible part, right on the ceiling) of the can is 6 inches.

It's an R40 (large) floodlight. I'm not familiar with the can #, but home depot has experienced people that I'm sure will steer you in the right direction. They're a very common size.

I just got back, measured and these are in 6 inch cans. I worried a little about the weight but they work fine.

This takes a standard Edison base bulb. (United States, about 1 inch diameter base. ) The candelabra bulbs have a much smaller base diameter closer to 1/2 inch.

Any lamp with at least 6.5" should be able to accommodate the bulb. You might need an extra inch or two to get it in the socket. The screw part itself is just like a regular bulb.

Yes. This should work. It is 8.6 inches in diameter with a 4-pin connection 55watts and 3500k. My replacement bulb matches the other original in our family room in color and luminnce and has worked well.

The size for a standard 60 watt bulb. Don't forget all this is, is a length extender for a bulb. Works really well.

This kit is for all bulb sizes. Find your bulb size and select same for order and it will fit.

Not only are the dimensions important, but you also need to know the wattage as some receptacles are only good up to certain wattage, otherwise burning out prematurely and could also be a fire hazard. Check your old bulb, somewhere on it should be the volts/watts. Hope this helps. P Pratt

What size is your socket? If a regular incandescent bulb fits, this should fit.

I couldn't find one at my local store so I ordered one from amazon specifically sized for my lamp. Now I have the correct bulb and when it burns out I can take it to the store and find it, but I will most likely order another from amazon.

The diameter is about 3/4 of an inch at the connector. The tubing on the bulb is about 2/3 of an inch in diameter.

Hi Melissa - I am not sure because I did not personal try that size of bulb. I was just doing a customer review on the lamp. I would suggest you contact the actual company who is selling this product and have them answer your question. Sorry

It's smaller than the socket. I put mine on top of the socket so it will take any size bulb. Hope this helps. PS: it is to small to screw onto the socket itself.

Don't have time to measure but nothing that large. You can use socket dimensions to see scale in photo. They are fatter than glass bulb s

call Ott light direct, *(# listed on their web site) and talk to a service rep, I could not find it on their web site, they will tell you exactly which one you need, have your numbers from the old bulb when you call - if they do not have it in stock they will give you the stock number and tell you to order it from Amazon.com. I have done it this way twice.

It needs to be dimmable and thinner than the standard light bulb to fit. I used a smaller LED bulb.

Sorry the bulb didn't fit my lamp. So it is useless. I should have returned back to amazon but I was so busy I didn't return. I still have it but not sure what to do with it because cannot be used for any of my lamp.
