  • Bulb Compatibility: This fixture is compatible with E26 base LED, Compact Fluorescent (CFL), Halogen, and Incandescent bulbs, up to a maximum of 60 watts.

The switch on the fixture itself is a simple on/off mechanism. If using a wall dimmer, leave the fixture's twist switch in the 'on' position.
