What else can I help you with?
Can a 220V light fixture be used in the US?
Yes, you can easily use it. Just install it as you would any other 120 volt light fixture and change the bulb from a 240 volt bulb to a 120 volt bulb. It will work just fine.
Is there a recessed lighting fixture you can put a heat light bulb in?

Why is light fixture hot?
When electricity runs through the fillament in a light bulb, the electrons move so fast that they generate heat, which also creates light. Light bulbs actually create more heat than light.
Is there a code for fluorescent light fixture covers?
I do not know of a specific code in the United States. However, a flourescent fixture should be covered if breaking a bulb would create serious problems, such as in a kitchen, a place where children play, etc. In lieu of covering the whole fixture they manufacture tubes that cover the bulbs themselves for the same purpose.
You have an outside light that won't work but switch has power?
First and foremost make sure the light bulb is a good one. Try it in another fixture to make sure, even if it just came out of the box it was packed in. If you have checked the switch for power then you must have a tester. The power coming to the switch will most likely be on the top screw. Turn the switch on and see if you have voltage on the bottom screw. Check this voltage from the screws to the ground wire as the neutral will not be accessible in the back of the switch box. If there is voltage to the bottom screw then move on to the light fixture. Remove the outside light fixture and see if you get a voltage reading on the incoming hot (black ) wire. If there is voltage there then you have to see if the lamp holder is making continuity. If you have an ohm meter or a continuity meter remove the lamp fixture from the "hot" wire and the neutral connection and see if you get a reading across the fixtures black and white wire. This has to be tested with the bulb in the fixture. No continuity reading then there is trouble with the socket. Might be time to think about a new fixture.
How do you loosen a light bulb that is stuck in the fixture?
One way to loosen a light bulb that is stuck in the fixture is to break the bulb. You can then use half of a potato to unscrew the bulb from the fixture. You can also make a loop with duct tape, adhere the middle of the loop to the light bulb. Use the two ends to twist the bulb out of the fixture.

It is recommended to double-check the bulb, ensure it is the correct type and properly installed, and also check the fixture and connections for any issues. If the problem persists, it may be necessary to consult a professional electrician for further assistance.
How can I test a light bulb to determine if it is working properly?
