I've used this to replace all my lights, ceiling, floor lamps, desk lamps. They work great.

No, this bulb requires a continual voltage of 110 to 120 V and will not work with a three-way or two way or even a touch lamp system.

These lower voltages can cause difficulty for the internal electronics of the bulb and potentially cause it to malfunction or stop working altogether.

Please do not use the bulbs in this kind of configuration

The bulb only requires that there be enough space to allow it to function properly, as any other bold blood… Nothing has changed except the size of the bulb, not the size of the interface with the standard socket
