The dark black incandescent type UV bulbs will work as they actually get hotter than the equivalent standard incandescent bulb of the same wattage, but the compact fluorescent type UV bulbs run too cool.

Can't find a JCDR-C 120v 50w halide replacement bulb for photography device. Base needs two prong bulb. Can I put a MR16 type halogen lamp bulb in the device?

No you cannot use a standard mr-16 12volt bulb as it will short right when you turn it on. They do sell them but you have to look up 120V mr-16 JCDR or JCDR-C.


Can i use a 60w led instead of a 60w incandescent bulb in an outside post lamp?

You could but it would be extremely bright! An incandescent lamp of 60 watt is about 800 lumens And so a 10 watt LED lamp should be plenty big enough. If you want as much light as possible instead of energy saving then you can fit bigger wattage LED lamps. Also, because they run a lot cooler, you can often exceed the maximum (Incandescent) rating for the fitting.


Will adding a motion sensor to a fluorescent lamp decrease the bulb life?

The motion sensor itself will not alter the bulb life, assuming it does not try to dim the fixture. The bulb life would be the same as if someone threw the switch each time the sensor turns on/off. From my experience, some motion sensors work poorly with florescent lights (CFLs or sometimes referred to as spiral bulbs). In my experience they flash, flicker, or stay dimly lit when the motion sensor has nothing in range. I do not know why. I put in an incandescent bulb and everything is fine. If you put a florescent bulb in and it works great then just leave it, it will have a long life. If it flashes or acts weird then, put in an old style incandescent or a halogen.
