I bought this bulb to use with an old (over 15 years)Torchiere Floor Lamp that used a 500 watt halogen bulb. This bulb cannot be used indoors according to Sylvania. I did not try to use it because of the fire danger with these lamps (they no longer make ones that use 500 watt bulbs). I would not have purchased it if it had been clear that they cannot be used in these old lamps.

My bulb was flickering after 20 years of heavy use, and would only stay lit for 30 seconds, so I needed a replacement fast. I looked at Azn and found everything was going for 6$ or more shipped in a couple of days. I went to the hardware store around the corner and picked up a Westinghouse Halogen J-Type Double Ended 500W bulb for 3$ and it works perfectly. My lamp says use 500W bulb to prevent fire hazard. So I did. Many of the bulbs at Azn are only 300W. Good luck! Years ago I had one of these torchere lamps go aflame at the bulb. Fortunately, I saw it instantly - cut off the electricity swiftly, and the flame died that moment. It was a miracle? Probably, given what the light was shining on at the time! But that is another story. Nothing lights up a room like these, but they have the potential to be dangerous.
