Wouldn't the light from the bulb
It is not any special light bulb. There should be numbers and letters on the
bulb to confirm this. I wouldn't use a compact fluorscent unless you are in a
pretty moderate climate. Bulbs rated for rough service, as in trouble lights
or traffic signals last longer if the door is used a lot

Thanks all.
You are probably right unless it is some sort of florescent bulb. Some of them

This won't go over well with the wife, but you are right. The fixture itself
is what makes it different. There are seals to keep the water out of the

This is within reason. Don't plug in a 500 watt halogen bulb, or

figure out how to change the light bulb. It is shaped like an octagon with
vertical strips of glass about inch and a half wide and about 6 inches
The only consideration you should concern yourself with is that you not install
a light bulb with so high a wattage that the fixture overheats. The fixture
should have a wattage statement such as, Do Not Exceed xxx Watts.

Hi,
Sometimes the lamp unit has a photocell, which switches on/off at dawn/dusk.
However some bulbs also have this unit at the bottom of the bulb. You will know
if the bulb has it built in, as the bulb is bulkier than normal.
If replacing the bulb
