can this be used on a indoor lamp? Connected to the plug in wire? Or a small heater to run in case of power outage?

it would have to be connected to a car size battery and the light or small heater ran off the batt. it would run a LED light but not enouth power for heater

the panel is only used to recharge 12 volt batteries this is not a stand alone power source

I used it for my kitchen and dining lights. Not sure of using it in a lamp. It plugs in with pins. It is not a screw in

I used it for an emergency light that goes on when the power goes out. LED light bulbs use hardly any power compared to standard emergency light bulbs, so I guess it would work fine.

NO MORE boards!! Take it out and throw it away! You can wire it direct to the switch or: I use a wall switch for two lamps in my hallway. They draw so little current you could wire 6 units to one switch, although you might just want to try one first-they put out a lot of light and virtually no heat. Best thing I ever did for those thin-lites.

Sure, as long as you feel safe with it indoors. Keep in mind it is a lantern burning a flame powered by one of the approved fuels. But it's no different than the pioneers used before we had electric lamps. It's why many would call it a hurricane lantern! But it will emit some fumes but nothing horrible. Indoors, I'd prefer to use battery powered devices during power outages indoors myself, but this lantern can certainly be used as well for emergencies or simply ambience of the good ole' days!! :) However, we bought ours to use outside on our patio and out by our fire pit. Hope this helps.

It would work, it is only 100W which is less than some light bulbs. Just letting you know it does get very hot so keep it away from anything that could be a potential danger of melting. And you don't want to leave it on all day like previously mentioned,I use it with a temperature controller that will shut it off when it reaches a certain temperature.

Yes...but you cannot run it off a normal, household light socket. It must be run w a 600 watt ballast or a 1000 watt ballast that can be adjusted down to run a 600 watt bulb.

I am currently Using a 100 watt light bulb without issue. I'm not sure about a ceramic heater but as long as it isn't near anything flammable it should be fine.

I believe if you have a lamp with 220V the circuit should manage the amount of power going thru the bulb itself. But I can be wrong. Might be better to check with manufacturer.

The lamp is equipped with only a twist on/off switch. You may be able to plug it into an outboard dimmer before going into the wall outlet.

Greetings, you would have to change the lamp out, and have a plug adapter. It is initially, for 110 volts. hope that helps.

This lamp is designed to be permanently wired into a ceiling fixture. It doesn't necessarily require an electrician. But, straight out of the box, there is no way to plug it into a wall outlet.

It can be plugged into an outlet; no electrician required. Easy to install, a great lamp (we have 2)

It is a pad that could be used anywhere. Glue it on a surface with some silicone, let it dry, plug it into a 120 volt outlet, and you will have a hot pad. A light bulb is 60watts. This one is 150. Probably higher power than you need. A smaller one would probably be better.

Even when technically possible, I wouldn't advise to do it, as overall quality of the unit is not high and a higher inside temperature, generated by a higher wattage lamp, would easily ruin the unit. As an aside comment I installed 4 units in June 2014 and two of them are already broken (not functional at all) and the other two already need a bulb replacement

That depends entirely on things like how big are the lightbulbs and how frequently and how long you intend listen/watch radio/tv. It is intended for emergency use, or for temporary camping. It would not be a "permanent" solution for not having electrical power, even in the jungles of Peru, I'm afraid.

no i cannot be plugged into a standard light bulb socket. it needs to be plugged into a 4 prong ballast in order to work. some floor lamps uses these.
