Never put a bulb in a light socket what has a higher wattage rating than the socket. This could cause either or both of the following problems, which could result in a fire:
As per the formula for power (Power (Watt) = Voltage (V) x Current (i) & Resistance (R) = V / i), 25w lamp bulb would have higher resistance compared to that of 5w lamp bulb.
Any HID head lamp bulb above 6000K are illegal.
It is a safety concern. With the switch before the bulb, the bulb is completely isolated from the potential source when the switch is turned off. With the switch behind the bulb, even if the switch is turned off, the potential source is still at the bulb. If any of these lamp holder parts touch the ground when removing the bulb the circuit will short out and trip the breaker. If you are grounded and touch any of the lamp holder parts you will get a nasty shock.
The manual sez that the odometer lamp is a '73' but offers no help on how to replace it.
40W Bulb will spiol due to over current passing through its coilAnswerSince the 40-W lamp has a higher resistance than the 100-W lamp, the greater voltage drop will appear the 40 W lamp. As a result the 40 W lamp will be subjected to a voltage beyond its 100-V rating, and the 100-W lamp will be subjected to a voltage below its 100-V rating. Therefore, the 40-W lamp will burn much more brightly than the 100-W lamp.Incidentally, the symbols for the 'watt' and 'volt' are upper, not lower, case: W and V.
No, it is not safe to use a heat lamp bulb in a regular socket in the bathroom because heat lamp bulbs typically require a special fixture designed for higher temperatures. Using a heat lamp bulb in a regular socket can pose a fire hazard due to the excess heat generated. It is important to always use the appropriate light bulbs for the fixtures they are intended for.

Yes. As long as the voltage is designed for the lamp and the socket and fixture can handle the heat (from the rated power in watts), you can. You will probably find that the socket or connector for this lamp is different than the one intended.
You should be able to use a self ballasted lamp in a regular socket safely as long as you do not exceed the wattage recommendations of the fixture. Self Ballasted simply means that the electronics to drive the flourescent bulb are all contained withing the packaging of the lamp. I hope this cleared up the question. Ben M.

A bulb in a lamp converts electric energy into light and heat energy.
no
The main subsystems in a lamp are the electrical system (power cord, socket, switch, and bulb), the shade or diffuser that covers the bulb, and the base that supports the lamp. These subsystems work together to provide illumination and functionality to the lamp.

It is not always a screw, but when it is, then just so that it can be attached in the socket of the lamp.
Yes, you can use a halogen bulb in a regular lamp as long as the bulb wattage does not exceed the lamp's recommended wattage limit. Additionally, be careful when handling halogen bulbs as they can get very hot during operation.
If you break a light bulb in its socket, isolate the power (turn off the electric to that socket). Then use a needle nose pliers to get out rest of it with lamp off
