I found a light fixture I want - but what light bulb?
Comments (6)thx for the info idie! where do you buy them? I haven't been to HD yet to see if they carry them. It's good to know they will last a long time. It wouldn't be easy for me to get up there and change one. And I'm hoping they aren't too tight around the globe - that would cause problems for my fingers getting a grip on them. The fixture won't be used much (if I can get the electrician to put it on a different switch from the over the sink fixture). I'll seldom need it but there's a bulb on the ceiling now (next to the skylight) and my tub (I also don't plan to use it except to soak my feet) is to one side of it and the shower to the other (on opposite sides of a 13' wide room). There is no light on the shower side. the over the sink lights are mostly blocked from the shower by the shower wall dividing them. I doubt I'll ever take a shower after dark and need it - but you just never know. i could also go on a wild cleaning spree and need light for that (ok, that ain't happening!). The skylight gives more than enough light for the whole room during the day (and a skinny frosted window). I figured if I'm getting a fixture for where the bulb 'lives' I might as well get one that covers those 2 less lit areas. At night I don't need more than the vanity lights. Will probably make do w/a night light. here's the bulb - you can see part of the wall dividing the shower and the darker area to the right of it is the shower. It's fine during the day tho. the vanity lights showing are being replaced....See MoreAbove ground pool light - identify light bulb?

Comments (6)Chiming in because I can sympathize. As you have found, my local stores carry the warm white or daylight bulbs only, as well. I seem to be happiest with the 3000 to 4000 range, but I can only find them online. In the past, I have ordered on Amazon, and the overheads were 3000k, from Sunco Lighting. I also required dimmable bulbs. Honestly, I just want to be able to run to the store to buy a bulb. We recently moved, and right now, I have a mix of daylight bulbs in the overhead cans, and soft white in the table lamps and wall sconces. Several of my bathrooms currently have a mix, which is not working at all. The warm whites are fine in the table lamps, but I want something a little less harsh in my overhead cans, and something a little bit crisper in my bedside lamps, and overhead sconces in my powder rooms. I think light bulbs should not be this difficult. The bulb aisle in the store is massive, and I still can't buy what I want off the shelf....See MoreMotion Sensor Light Bulbs for recessed lights size R30
