You can choose from range of sizes and shapes, including candle and globe shapes, and finishes that offer coloured light or different colour temperatures, such as warm white, cool white and daylight. You can also select from dimmable designs or various wattages for varying levels of brightness.

There are also a variety of bases depending on the particular fitting the light bulb needs to work with. An Edison screw is indicated by an E number and bayonet caps are indicated by a code starting with B, such as BC.
