It would not be dangerous to leave a light bulb partially unscrewed, however, there is some possibility that it will fall out of the socket. I would advise that if you don't want the bulb to be on, and you don't have a light switch, unscrew the bulb completely and put it away until you need it.
What else can I help you with?
What is the difference between a light bulb and a pregnant women?
A light bulb emits light when switched on, while a pregnant woman carries and nurtures a developing fetus until childbirth.
Do CF light bulbs produce as much heat as incandescent bulbs?
No, compact fluorescent bulbs run much cooler that an incandescent bulb. A CF bulb can be unscrewed when the lamp is on whereas an incandescent will give you a bad burn if this is tried.
If you unscrew a light bulb slightly and leave the power on to it is it still using power?
Possibly. If it still works when you turn it on, the of course it is using power. If it does not work when it otherwise would, then it is definitely not using power, just as if you didn't have the bulb there at all. <<>> With the voltage on the circuit and the light bulb in the circuit, the bulb will glow. If you unscrew the bulb until it goes out the potential voltage will still be in the circuit but no current will flow so no power will be used. In this scenario the unscrewing of the bulb will be the same as using a switch in the circuit to interrupt the current flow.
What kind of energy is used when turn on a light bulb is called?
Electricity is the type of energy that is used when you turn on a light bulb. When you leave a room, you use more energy by leaving the light on than if you turn it off and back on when you return.
Can a bulb light if electricity doesn't get to the bulb?
No, a light bulb will not light up if electricity does not reach it. Electricity is required to flow through the filament in the bulb to generate light. If there is no electrical current, the bulb will not illuminate.

How do you fix the light on an odometer of a 1998 Accord EX?
I have an 02 Accord and the same light went out. I unscrewed the faceplate and then unscrewed the control cluster and pulled the cluster out. When i found the bulb i pulled it out only to find out it is a dealer part because the bulb is so small. Good luck.
When a light bulb is glowing which form of energy goes into the bulb Which form of energy leave it?
The energy that goes in is electrical energy; the energy that leaves it is visible light, as well as heat.
Why would my 3rd brake light only partially light up?
more then one light bulb in it open and replace the burn ones.
If you have 3 light bulbs explain how you can determine they are connected in parallel circuits by unscrewing one bulb?
Unscrewing any light bulb in series will result in the others turning off. If they are in parallel, unscrewing one will have no effect. For example, say we have lights bulbs L1, L2, and L3, where L1 and L2 are in parallel and L3 is in series with L1 and L2. If L1 is unscrewed: L2 and L3 will stay lit. If L2 is unscrewed: L1 and L3 will stay lit. If L3 is unscrewed: L1 and L2 will turn off.
How the light bulb works in old days?
the bulbs store a lot of energy inside itself before passing the filament and when they unscrewed it, it would stay on for quite a while
Do CF light bulbs produce as much heat as incandescent bulbs?
No, compact fluorescent bulbs run much cooler that an incandescent bulb. A CF bulb can be unscrewed when the lamp is on whereas an incandescent will give you a bad burn if this is tried.
How do you remove the rear brake light cover to replace the brake light bulb n a 2003 Mazda MPV I've unscrewed the 2 screws and it still won't come out?
push it forward the it should come off
When a light bulb is on what energy goes in the bulb which forms of energy leave it?
When a light bulb is on, electrical energy goes into the bulb and is converted into light energy and heat energy. Some of the electrical energy may also be converted into a small amount of sound energy due to vibrations in the bulb.
Is it safe to leave a night light on all night?
Yes , it is safe to leave a night light on all night , however it depends on the size and the bulb.
How do you change fog light on jaguar s type?
On my 2003 X-Type, I unscrewed the bottom panel under the car using a torx screw driver to get access to the fog light. The Fog light used the same light bulb as the headlights. I hope this information helps you.
