Type B light bulbs give a special look to any number of applications such as bathrooms, chandeliers and outdoor decorative fixtures. We carry the incandescent type B light bulbs you're looking for! Many times people will see a label requiring the use of type B light bulbs and these are the ones you need.

that doesn't really splain it
