What is the highest wattage incandescent bulb this lamp will accept? Verify that the lamp is NOT 3-way.

The label says you can use a max of 150 watt type A bulbs. I am using 72 watt clear Halogen bulbs and they put out plenty of light. It is NOT a 3-way lamp.

I bought these for my niece. She says the lamp is not 3-way and the highest wattage is 150 watts. BTW, she loves these lamps.

I really can't tell you. I use 2- 150 watt Incandescent bulbs. It does have a two step switch that might pose a problem. Also the two step switch works some of the time. The 1st step ( the dimmer of the two ) sometimes does not work and only the bright step works. You might try the manufacturers web site or 800 number, if it can be found.

I currently use a CFL bulb in mine. Only limit would be the size of the bulb (higher wattage = bigger bulb)

60 watt or 13W max. CFL bulb is the highest you can use in the reading lamp.

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

the max is 60 watts for an incandescent light, but i have a compact florescent that is well under that actual wattage but equivalent to the brightness of a higher incandescent bulb. keep in mind, the light is directed up to the ceiling by the shade, it doesnt spill light outward much. i read by it a lot.

It supports 3-way bulbs but has in-line electronics that is supposed to keep the lamp from working with wattage greater than 150w. I removed the in-line electronics because I only used a17w LED bulb and the electronics made the bulb flicker.

150 watt is the maximum. It says so on a sticker right on the lamp that I have. The sticker also says to use "type A lamp 3-way or smaller".

Personally I only use a 75-watt bult because that's enuf brightness in that location. Never used a 3-way bulb in this lamp.

while this particular part does not specify max wattages, similar parts specify 45w per socket ... as led bulbs are likely to be far below this i don't see any problems (i'm sure the manufacturer is simply trying to be clear that this part is NOT intended for high-wattage incandescent bulbs - and as these parts have been available forever - and as fairly bright LED bulbs are a recent development, the ad text probably has never been updated)

It accepts any size / wattage bulb however, you should check the lantern you are using it with for the max wattage for the lantern. I am using it with a paper lantern and it's max is 40. DO NOT EXCEED WHAT THE LANTERN SAYS! (Yes, I've made that mistake in the past. It isn't pretty)

Type A bulb; 3-way up to 100 watts. I did decide to keep lamps but purchased a lighter color shade.

It's at the high end of wattage, but yes. However, 100 Watt Incandescent bulbs are being phased out in favor of flourescent bulbs and may be hard to find. More typically, a regular bulb would be 75 watts or even 60 watts.

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

Not sure what a cfl bulb is. I don't no why you would want anything other then a 3 way. It's a great feature. Tell what a cfl is and I will try it.

We bought the 3 bulb option. Max wattage says 660W. That seems really high to me. We like it but the bottom piece is starting to lose it's shape a little as it rests on 3 prongs.

If this is the lamp that I bought it absolutely takes a 3 way bulb...I love the lamp!
