Does it take a 3 way bulb?

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

Yes, it does. I use a 150 max bulb, according to the lamp's specs. Nice and bright. I have it near my bed for reading, and it is perfect! Hope my answer helps.

Its supposed to, and mine worked with the 3-way exactly 3 times. After that it only worked on the middle setting. Not a big deal for me, though, since I got for a reading lamp over my bed, and it works great for that.

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.

I discarded the papers that came with it. But just doing it from memory I believe it does. Sorry I can't be more help.

Probably not since it recommends 100W 3-way bulb. FYI, my 3-way simply does not work so I am just using it as a regular 100W.

I have it on a lamp with a 3way bulb it is fine. The brighter light is good because it fills the whole room and makes getting up SO much easier. It also has a switch-on option so you can use the lamp other times. I love it.

It has two screws for two wires. The 3-way refers to the bulb type such as a 30-70-100 watt three-way lamp.

Yes it does but there for a smaller socket bulb. You can't use a standard bulb

Hello, Thank you for you email. I checked this item and I see that is is 24" high. It does not use a 3-way bulb. If you have any questions please contact us.

Yes. The switch on the socket turns 3 way light on and off and selects the brightness assuming a 3 way bulb is used.

It has a three way switch and uses a three-way bulb. As with any three way switch, if you use a non-three-way bulb, you will have an on-off-on-off pattern with the switch.

Never tried 3-way bulb. However, a change in the type of screw-in base wouldn't have any effect on a 3-way bulb - the current is still the same.

Question was about a 3-way SWITCH (where two different wall switches control the socket), not 3-way socket. Yes, this bulb will work fine in a 3-way switch arrangement.

We have a 3-way bulb in there. We tend to use the second setting the most but will be more than adequate

It actually came with a 100 watt energy saver (spiral) light bulb. Based on the number of clicks when turning the light on and off I believe it would take a three way bulb with no problem also. I hope this helps.

Yes thus will dim a 3 way bulb. Just turn the lamp on to the brightness you want and then use the Insteon controller to control on-off and brightness

Mine does not have a 3 way switch. I cant imagine how any lamp could. The manufacturer has safety guidlines. I have used a 60 watt bulb in mine

No. This will not work in a 3 way switch application. Also requires a neutral.

I'm using it to control my front porch light which has an LED bulb, and it works great for that. If by "3 way" you mean, 3 different light settings for a single bulb (such as 50w, 100w & 150w), probably not (although it should work for a single setting). If you mean a single light controlled by 2 separate switches, I don't know but would doubt it.

The damn thing didn't work with a three way bulb, I'm using it but was very disappointed.
