Can this bulb be used in a 60 watt lamp? Such as the Boston Harbor Architect Swing Arm Desk Lamp?

Yes, as long as:1. It physically fits2. the base type is the same (standard on bulb)3. and the lamp is not dimmer controlled

It takes a standard light bulb. So you can use any ordinary bulb you would use in a lamp. I believe up to 60 watts.

I don't think this lamp will provide that kind of light. The bulb sockets say '60 w limit', that would be 180 incandescent. My lamp had difficulty accepting LED or CFL bulbs (in fact it wouldn't). You might call the manufacturer or search for a lamp that says it provides daylight.

Yes. We have been using one in a surface-mounted glass lensed fixture for some time with no problems. There is less heat build-up than the 60W incandescent lamps they replaced and they are much brighter.

I have a 60 watt bulb in mine, but it says it can take up to a 100 watt bulb max on the lamp.

what watts are the bulbs used for this lamp? Is it 60 watts a shade, 100 watts ...?

Yes,it can accept a 60w or 75w incandescent bulb. It also can use fluorescent bulbs. Just remember that all these bulbs sit higher up in the sleeves than the spot lights and remember the lights shine down and not across the area. This is a spot light fixture!!!!!

The lamp lasted less than a year. I no longer have it and do not recommend that you purchase it. It was very poorly constructed. However, to answer your question, though I am not absolutely sure I think it will take any bulb with a traditional screw type (E26 I think) base that is used on the traditional A19 incandescent bulb. You can't use any bulb brighter than 60w. Good Luck!

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 :).

It depends on the bulb you put into it. I think the recommended wattage is no more than 60 watts (ie, a 60 watt bulb).

Unfortunately no, 60 watts max. is recommended, but I have been using a 100 watt bulb without any problems.

I tried a 60w regular bulb and might have been able to get it in but it would really be tight and I was afraid I might break it. A higher wattage bulb might work if it has a longer neck.

We use a 40 watt, candelabra base bulb. We got ours at Target, so it was no problem.

Dear debbie 60 is the maximum wattage you can use. I've used florescent lamps anyway. Good luck

As long as the desk lamp is designed for the non-standard base this bulb uses and 40 watts will meed your needs, sure this will work.

Yes. I put in an adapter to take it from a candelabra base bulb (which it requires) to a standard base and used a 60 watt Edison style bulb.
