2. GU24 lamp fitting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GU24_lamp_fitting

   No 3-way lamp support. Incompatibility with other bulb types. Will maintain a price premium while they are mandated in a minority of jurisdictions. While the pins spacing is standardized, there is no standard for base width. Some fixtures shroud or recess the socket, assuming base dimensions of the bulbs they came with.

3. Bi-pin lamp base - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bi-pin_lamp_base

   The suffix after the G indicates the pin spread; the G dates to the use of Glass for the original bulbs. GU usually also indicates that the lamp provides a mechanism for physical support by the luminaire: in some cases, each pin has a short section of larger diameter at the end (sometimes described as a "peg" rather than a "pin" [2]); the socket allows the bulb to lock into place by twisting ...

4. 3-way lamp - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3-way_lamp

   A 3-way lamp, also known as a tri-light, is a lamp that uses a 3-way light bulb to produce three levels of light in a low-medium-high configuration. A 3-way lamp requires a 3-way bulb and socket, and a 3-way switch. In 3-way incandescent light bulbs, each of the filaments operates at full voltage. Lamp bulbs with dual carbon filaments were ...

   No mercury is used in the manufacturing of LED lamps, a different technology replacement for incandescent lamps. [159] In addition, LED lamps do not require warmup time in cold weather, and in fact, perform better in colder temperatures, making them an excellent choice for use in cold locations, such as refrigeration units.

6. Incandescent light bulb - Wikipedia

   Miniature lamps may have a wedge base and wire contacts, and some automotive and special purpose lamps have screw terminals for connection to wires. Very small lamps may have the filament support wires extended through the base of the lamp for connections. A bipin base is often used for halogen or reflector lamps. [140]

7. Lightbulb socket - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lightbulb_socket

   Miniature lamps may have a wedge base made of glass or plastic. The base may be an extension of the glass envelope of the bulb, with the wire leads of the lamp folded up at the base. Some wedge bases are made of plastic and slipped over the wire leads. A wedge base holds the lamp by spring compression in the socket.

9. Wedge base - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wedge_base

   A wedge base is a type of electrical connector used as a fitting for small light bulbs. It is similar to the bi-pin connector , except that the two "pins" are the same wires that extend into the bulb (rather than being rigid), and the wires are bent up onto the sides of the base, where they make contact with the socket.
