What is the maximum bulb size for a 250W - 250V socket?
250 watts, is the maximum, according to the info you gave me.
Can a light bulb work on a DC voltage?
It can, but if you're wanting to run a 120v light bulb on DC, you'll need 120v DC to get the rated output. That's a lot of batteries. It's easier, and more sensible, to find a DC rated light bulb, such as an RV bulb.
Can you use 120 volt bulb in 130 volt socket?
All other things being equal, an incandescent light should not "flicker" whether it is connected to 120 or 130 VAC.

Where is 130 volt electrical power used?
You're looking at 130v light bulbs? Well...the answer is "nowhere." A 130v light bulb has a heavier-duty filament in it than a 120v bulb does, so the bulb will last longer. Put it in a regular socket and it will work fine.
