What's the difference between "Daylight" and "Soft White" bulbs?

"Daylight" bulbs offer a crisp, energizing, blue-toned light that's perfect for task lighting in areas like kitchens or offices, while "Soft White" provides a warm, cozy, yellow-toned light ideal for relaxing spaces like living rooms and bedrooms. To learn more about which is right for you, check out our <a href="https://www.homedepot.com/c/ab/daylight-bulbs-vs-soft-white-bulbs/9ba683603be9fa5395fab901b9389c60?emt=plpfaq_2508_lightbulbs" style="text-decoration: underline;">Daylight Bulbs vs Soft White Bulbs guide</a> to help you decide.

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

<a href="https://www.homedepot.com/b/Lighting-Light-Bulbs/Type-A/N-5yc1vZbmbuZ1z1dq82?emt=plpfaq_2508_lightbulbs" style="text-decoration: underline;">Type A light bulbs</a> 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.

When should I choose flood or spotlight bulbs, and what's the difference?

<a href="https://www.homedepot.com/b/Lighting-Light-Bulbs-Flood-and-Spot-Light-Bulbs/N-5yc1vZ2fkpcw3?catStyle=ShowProducts?emt=plpfaq_2508_lightbulbs" style="text-decoration: underline;">Flood light bulbs</a> produce a wide beam, ideal for illuminating large areas like patios or driveways. In contrast, spotlight bulbs focus their beam more narrowly, making them perfect for highlighting artwork or architectural features, giving you options for different needs and purposes. Both can be used indoors or outdoors, depending on the fixture.

What's the difference between BR and PAR bulbs, like a BR30 versus a PAR38?

BR bulbs are bulged reflector bulbs that produce a wider, more diffused pool of light. They are ideal for general room lighting and are often used in recessed cans. PAR bulbs, or parabolic aluminized reflector bulbs, create a more focused, intense beam of light, making them great for spotlights, task lighting, and outdoor applications.
