Are E26 and A19 bulbs the same?
No, E26 and A19 are not the same. The E26 does not describe the shape of the bulb. E26 describes the cap or base of the bulb. The cap or base is used to provide electrical and mechanical contact to the light bulb. The “E” stands for Edison Screw which is the most common type of lamp base. The “26” is the diameter of the base.
An A19, on the other hand, describes the shape of the bulb and which series it belongs to. The “A” is the category of light bulb shape and the “19” is the diameter in eighths of an inch. A19 bulbs have become the common bulb for many lighting applications. It is also common to see A19 bulbs using an E26 base.
What is an omnidirectional A19 bulb?
An omnidirectional A19 bulb is a bulb that provides light from the top, sides, and bottom of the bulb. An omnidirectional A19 bulb is great to use in floor lamps, table lamps, wall sconces, and chandeliers.
