Ott Light Bulbs
 

Wondering if an Ott bulb can be used in a standard lighting fixture, such as a desk arm lamp. Any experiences with that?

Yes they can I use one in my goose neck lamp. Make sure it is the screw in bulb and not a plug in type.

They sure can.

It depends upon the way that the bulb attaches to the lamp.

Some of the Ott lights and bulbs are proprietary - a lamp will take only an Ott brand bulb and an Ott brand bulb will fit only into an Ott lamp. Same with The Daylight Company lamps - I have one that they are no longer making bulbs for so when this one burns out, the lamp is gone, too.

Great Question. I was wondering the same thing and just had not sat down to do the research. Thanks for the question and all the answers. You all have saved me some time. :) Got to LOVE everybody on this board. They are so resourceful!!

Just make sure it has the correct fitting for your particular lamp and you should be fine.
