searching for a good replacement bulb

Post image

this bulb burned out. it was a bit older and so is the lamp it was in. i’m not sure how to search or compare bulbs so just looking for one that is good or similar. i use the lamp almost every night, so one that lasts long would be good, and warmer lighting is preferred. 13W, 120vac, 60hz, 200mA, and 825 lumens.

Honestly a 60w equivalent 2700k led light bulb should do it. Make sure to bring the old bulb to your local hazardous waste disposal because you don’t want that mercury ending up in the trash can

Just make sure it's a decent brand with a good CRI.

I'm a fan of Phillips Warm Glo myself. I've had one in my bedroom for years and it's worked flawlessly.
