Type A Light Bulbs
BEST SELLERS
Known for their classic shape and versatility, Type A bulbs are a staple in homes and businesses everywhere. Type A bulbs are characterized by their traditional, pear-shaped design. While the "A" designates the shape, the numbers following it indicate the bulb's diameter in eighths of an inch. Two common sizes you'll encounter are:
- A19: The most common size, the A19 bulb is your standard household light bulb. It's perfect for table lamps, floor lamps, pendant lights, and ceiling fixtures.
- A15: Slightly smaller than the A19, the A15 bulb is often referred to as an "appliance bulb" due to its common use in refrigerators, ovens, and other household appliances. Its compact size also makes it suitable for smaller decorative fixtures.
Choosing the Right Base
The base of a light bulb is the crucial component that establishes the electrical connection between the bulb and the fixture. It's essential to select a bulb with a base that matches your fixture's socket. Type A bulbs predominantly utilize a medium screw base, also known as an E26 base. This is the standard size for most household lighting fixtures across North America, making it a versatile choice for a wide range of applications. However, you'll also occasionally encounter smaller candelabra bases (E12) on A15 bulbs specifically designed for decorative or appliance use. These smaller bases are often found in chandeliers, sconces, and certain types of appliance lighting. Before making a purchase, it's always prudent to double-check your fixture's requirements to ensure compatibility and avoid any installation issues. Inspecting the existing bulb or consulting the fixture's manual will provide the necessary information regarding the correct base type.
