I have a tortiere lamp with a 3-way bulb - will this work for me?

If you have a three way switch in the line or lamp after this switch yes. If not your three way bulb will only work on one setting. I believe it will be full on.

I really don't think so. I think it would be better to ask the manufacture more better information

I'm not sure. It won't work the 3-way bulb like the lamp is designed, but it should still work as a dimmer with whatever bulb is in the lamp.

No this will not work. It has a high and low, that is it. No dimmer as described in the description.

No it is only a once click for on and one for off. This lamp has a special sized bulb and won't take a 3 way bulb.

I don't see why not. The way it works is like you left the lamp on but unplugged it before you went to bed, then slowly turned up a dimmer switch. So I wouldn't expect a fluorescent bulb to work since they don't dim. I think a three way bulb would just only come up to the level that you left the lamp set to. Mine is on a lamp with a three way switch, but I ran out of those bulbs. Works great, so you can do that if the bulb doesn't work.

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.

If you want to create a 3 way for the garage it should work but not on an existing 3 way.e.g. if you wanted a switch in the house to operate a single pole switch in the garage that would work as that is the purpose of this switch. Fluorescent fixtures I am not sure about. Mine (older model) works the kitchen ceiling fixture which has 4 compact fluorescent bulb plus a ceiling fan.

I'm sorry, but I don't know anything about Ike a lamps. If you tell me more about the lamp, I'l try to answer your question. See if your local hardware store supplies the bulbs, make note of the product number then look for three same bulb number on Amazon.

Not on this swithck if you have a 3 way bulb. If you put a basic bulb in, you will just have to turn the swith more to get it to turn on then off.

I never tried them with a three-way bulb, but if you buy a three-way bulb, to my knowledge, it should work in any lamp. Hope this was helpful.

The key to the puzzle is in the light fixture socket. This device works AOK with a single setting (on/off) socket. This device will harmlessly convert the three way bulb to one way (low light) operation. The dimmer switch would then work on the low light only. Will it work full feature with a three way bulb - no.

This is a socket for three-way bulbs. If your lamp takes three-way bulbs with a chain pull, then it will work. I usually just leave the bottom portion of the socket attached to the lamp, and swap out the inner working with the switch (the part that usually goes bad). You can either use the new top portion, or the one from the original socket. Always unplug the lamp before working on it.

It's a very simple lamp - on/off switch is the only control. I don't believe that it will accommodate a 3- way or 2-way bulb.

Lamps Plus advises that they have a dimmer available for purchase for this lamp. Has anyone adapted this for 3 way bulb? It likely can be adapted though Lamps Plus advises consulting someone to determine this.

I have 2 of these bulbs and they both work well, but I did figure out that they need to be in a single on off type socket{not a 3 way lamp socket}I hope this helps you.

It works with a three way bulb. I set the lamp switch for 150 and use the dimmer feature to control.

Probably-- it just sends more (or less) electricity to the lamp. Works fine with a one-way incandescent bulb-- made it function as a 3-way.

My lamps work for the 3 way lighting. I used the bulbs as specified and they work. Your bulb or lamp may be damaged. If the lamps are, try exchanging.

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.
