I need to use this for a lamp purchased from the UK with a 25 watt bulb. Will this work?

Any electrical device can cause fire even your laptop power adapter, I'm not aware of any outstanding safety issues with this product and I've been using it in the past few months while it's connected continuously to the power supply with no issues. If you want to be extra cautious you can turn it off when you are not using the lamp and in any case 25W is not even a concern from power outage and heat dissipation.

It will work anywhere regular incandescent bulb will work. The only problem it will not last long enough to cover the cost difference.

No it isn't. It's too short for your lamp. This one is 18W and the original Arial bulb is 27W. Bulb # is PST27R. It's available on Amazon for around $25.

You're putting a 40 watt bulb into a 60 watt outlet. You should be fine. With that bulb you will be pulling less watts than what the lamp can output.

The information on the lamp says to use 40w type B or Type G bulbs. I am personally using a Type B I picked up a three pack at the supermarket.

I would think it would work; mine replaced a different wattage bulb in my kitchen and it's been working fine. You could also ask the actual company selling the bulb.

I bought lamps....that's it. No basic purchaser would know that information. You might have to check at a lighting or lamp store or ask an electrician.

I used it 500 watt lamp and it worked fine. For stronger 1500 Watt, I am not sure.

The item's instructions calls for 25 watt candalabra base bulbs. That's what I used.

Our directions say to use a 12v 35W Type JC lamp and that's what's currently in our lamp. If you Google that you should be able to find it. I've also had good luck with taking bulbs to Home Depot for matching.

I use it with one 75-watt incandescent bulb. I believe that as long that you don't pass the limited watts, you'll be fine.

I used a 400 watt MH bulb with the ballast no issues. I don't see why a 200 watt wouldn't work.

This lamp may not meet your desires. I use only the bulb that came with the lamp. A larger bulb may not be safe. J

YES. I have an old Tensor lamp (about 35 years old, but no model number anywhere) with this label attached on the bottom "tensor 120V. ~.25 AMPS 25 Watts Use #93 bulb only. Any other bulb may destroy this lamp." I bought two of these since the shipping costs more than 2 bulbs. Fits and works perfectly.

It is just electricity. If an incandescent 25 watt bulb works, this one will also.

Hello, I just bought a standard 40 watt bulb. It says you can use 40 watts or less on the inside of the lamp. Hope this helps :).

Hi Judith! I use a clear 25watt bulb in mine, and it puts out plenty of light. I dont think I would try a 40watt bulb. Where ever you decide to put the lamp, 25watts will be plenty. I have two in my bedroom. But in the other one I have a 15watt bulb. I hope I helped you out a little bit. :)
