That is a b22 bayonet....

I have only bought a few incandescent lightbulbs in the past ten years for appliances (fridge and oven bulbs). I have no idea. Never heard of those two manufacturers.

Most standard light fixtures are meant to take no more than a 60 watt bulb. Some wall sconces, bathroom lights and lamps are only rated for 40 watt.

Thank you for your help, I shall research the brands available to me in the uk, and determine which is the best out of the few available, I will check the bathroom are ok for 60w, thank you for the help once again.

are they the same as incandescent bulbs in regards to lighting produced and the toxicity or do they pose health risks also? any information on these and where the best place to acquire them would be great also.

Restoration Hardware and a few other places carry them. Usually they are sort of expensive and give off maybe a third of the light you are used to for incandescent.

Thank you for taking the time to enlighten me. 🙏🏻

Anyone know who is the best brand for 40, 60 watt incandescent light bulbs? Bell? crompton?

I'm pretty sure what the fitting is on the bulb below, but just to clarify this a BC/B22d?



Still not sure if I should be using 40 or 60 watt bulbs either, i put 40s in the living room and bedrooms and 60s in the bathrooms and kitchen.

Great post and insight thank you so much. I would love your help on which manufacturer of incandescent bulbs, is in your opinion the best quality for durability and lighting, that I will be able to get in the United Kingdom, I went looking for incandescent bulbs after reading about all the emf, mercury, lead, blue light and uv radiation associated with these new energy bulbs from multiple sources, and was surprised to find after visiting 5 different shops that nobody stocks them anymore.

I managed to find these 40 watt incandescent bulbs,  after a lot of searching, they come two In a box, one blew straight away 😫 So I'm not sure if I should be using 60 watt or if they are just cheap bad bulbs idk?

Thank you for this information, if you could help me with the same questions above I'd appreciate your insight ☝🏻

My family is prone to insomnia, so this is something I've heard talked about several times. Something about the blue wavelengths excites the brain. If you use it indoors (or are spending late night on the computer) it can confuse your bodies natural sleep cycle. There are programs that are supposed to change the light output of your computers to help prevent this.

Apple has introduced the night shift within the new iPads and phones to eliminate the blue light. Which is interesting.
orgonite with shungite has been proven to block emf currently researching where to get this for all of my devices also.
