About: 3-way lamp

An Entity of Type: lighthouse, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

A 3-way lamp, also known as a tri-light, is a lamp that uses a 3-way light bulb to produce three levels of light in a low-medium-high configuration. A 3-way lamp requires a 3-way bulb and socket, and a 3-way switch. Unlike an incandescent lamp controlled by a dimmer, each of the filaments operates at full voltage, so the color of the light does not change between the three steps of light available. Certain compact fluorescent lamp bulbs are designed to replace 3-way incandescent bulbs, and have an extra contact and circuitry to bring about similar light level. In recent years, LED three way bulbs have become available as well.

A 3-way lamp requires a 3-way bulb and socket, and a 3-way switch.

Certain compact fluorescent lamp bulbs are designed to replace 3-way incandescent bulbs, and have an extra contact and circuitry to bring about similar light level. In recent years, LED three way bulbs have become available as well. Lamp bulbs with dual (carbon) filaments were built as early as 1902 to allow adjustable lighting levels. (en)
