A few quick tips to help navigate through all those confusing bulb size
classifications.
-
C7/E12 patio lights are smaller decorative light bulbs and they use
a candelabra-size socket base. They are great in smaller spaces and
can be used in a variety of ways for both string lighting and
decorative lighting.
-
C9/E17 patio lights are a step larger than their C7/E12 cousins and
have an intermediate socket base. C9s are a great choice for patio
string lights, decorating larger areas and for getting more
illumination.
-
E26 lights are the socket base size of most typical household light
bulbs and they feature larger bulbs for patio lights that you might
want spaced further apart, or for large areas where you want a
larger light display.
-
G50, G40 and other "G" bulbs are all Globe (hence the "G) and the
following number is the diameter of the bulb in millimeters. Globe
lights will include a base size using any of the above three
classifications, helping you to easily match up your globe light
with a light string.
