What watt bulb do you use? I see on the card that came with the lamps 'nothing higher than 8 watts' but all of the replacement bulbs on Amazon are 15 watts.

It is the size of a night light or Christmas bulb. Just pick up a pack at a local store.

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.

You would use very low watt, the candle type bulb. I ordered these and they were too small for my lighting fixture and I'm looking to sell them, they are brand new.

It's a MR16 20 watt bi-pin bulb. As the original bulbs burn out I've replaced them with LED bulbs that give me the equivalent of 35 watts, but only use 5 watts of power. They are more expensive, but save in the long run and should last a long, long time. You may be able to find a 50 watt equivalent.

The lamp comes with a 40 watt bulb. My lamp has a label saying to use only a 40 watt bulb. The description on Amazon says 40w. A 25 watt bulb wouldn't put out enough heat to make the lamp work.

My experience is that if you put a higher watt bulb in you run the risk of damaging the lamp. I would stick with the two 35 watt bulbs.

I have the exact lamp. It uses a Type B bulb with a blunt tip. Maximum 60 watt bulb. GE and Phillips have these bulbs.

Find one with a higher wattage equivalent, they work but not as bright as i would like. I also need to keep one of the original bulbs in the circut. (7) LED & (1) regular filament bulb. If I didn't bulbs would constantly flash. Has to do with Malibu transformer voltage regulator.

The question was raised because the Amazon description says 7 watt but the sale header says it's a 7watt bulb??

I buy them here, on Amazon. I plan to try the 10 watt bulbs next, as the 20 watt are a little bright. Both types are available here.

I emailed/called Watts and informed them the model number. Their phone number is:1-800-752-5582. Their customer service was excellent - when the replacement bulb arrived broken, they replaced it immediately.

I bought the bulbs that only draw 15 watts but put off 75 or 100 watts of light and they work fine.

You need to buy a bulb separately. Don't get a bulb that needs higher watts than the limit of the lamp.

Hi, Penny,I'm just using the bulb that came with the lamp...don't even know the wattage. It's an incandescent bulb that's usually used in aquariums. I'm "old school," and prefer incandescents to the new bulbs. Take care.Tony

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