Question 3

How do I decide which light bulb shape code I need?

Accepted Answer

To choose the right light bulb shape, consider the fixture you'll be using it in and look for the code (like A19, G25, or BR30) printed on your old bulb or in your fixture's specifications, ensuring a proper fit and desired light distribution. We offer c11, ca11, and a19.

Question 4

I'm replacing a bulb and see a lot of letters and numbers on the base. What do these light bulb base codes like E26, GU10, or G13 mean?

Accepted Answer

Light bulb base codes indicate the type of connector and the size of the bulb's base, ensuring it fits correctly into your fixture. The “E” denotes a standard screw-in Edison base, like the common E26. At the same time, “GU” usually signifies a bi-pin connector often found in track lighting and spotlights, and “G” is usually the most popular of the common bi-pin base types. Understanding these codes prevents buying the wrong bulb and ensures safe, reliable lighting.

Question 5

What are type A light bulbs, and why are they so common?

Accepted Answer

Type A light bulbs are the classic, pear-shaped bulbs you're most likely familiar with. They fit standard medium-base sockets and are widely used in lamps and fixtures throughout homes. Their popularity stems from their versatility, affordability, and compatibility with most everyday lighting setups, making them a reliable choice for general illumination.

Question 6

What are the key benefits of switching to LED light bulbs in my home?

Accepted Answer

LED light bulbs are incredibly energy-efficient, using up to 80% less energy than traditional incandescent bulbs, translating to significant savings on electricity bills. They also have a much longer lifespan, meaning fewer replacements and less hassle.
