Help Finding the Right Bulb The First Time

There are thousands of bulbs to choose from, so we know that selecting the exact bulb can be confusing!

So, give us a call on our toll free number 800-755-0155. Our expertly trained sales staff will walk you through the process of identifying your bulb. We have lots of photos on the web site to help determine your bulb.

If you have this information handy, it will be very helpful for our sales staff. Much of this information is on the bulb itself.

  • Manufacturer (Phillips, GE, Sylvania)
  • Bulb Type (Fluorescent, Incandescent, Halogen, HID, other)
  • Model Number (A9053-PAR38)
  • Bulb Shape
  • Bulb Size (length and diameter)
  • Bulb Base
  • Volts
  • Watts or Amps
  • Any identifying marks printed or stamped on the bulb or it's base

Refer to our visual bulb ID page, and look for a bulb that looks like yours. Then, try to match the base to one of the bases in the picture. If it's not there, you can email, fax or call us with the information. We have thousands of bulbs on reference to compare with yours.

If all else fails, photocopy your bulb. Place your bulb on the copy glass of a photocopier, cover it with a piece of white paper, make the copy and fax it to us at (760) 770-7182. We're really good at reading the shape of a bulb from copies like this.

Commercial Lighting Industries is the source for all your light bulbs from GE, Osram Sylvania, Philips, Ushio and more.
