I’m moving into a my new home and fixing things that I can. Does anyone know what kind of light bulb I need for this ceiling fan light ? My best guess is a T4 based on googling but the slot has a meta connector in each side. It also reads 500w

From the Stanley IntelliSensor™ Stud Sensor instruction manual.
Calibration:
- Hold the IntelliSensor™ Stud Sensor flat against the surface, making firm contact.
- Locate the activation switch on the right-hand side of the unit – press and hold in. The red LEDs will briefly flash and the green LED “Power” light will go on and remain on. Keep holding the activation switch during all of the following procedures.
Note: While calibrating, the IntelliSensor™ Stud Sensor must not be placed directly over a stud, dense material such as metal, or over a wet or newly painted area, or it will not properly calibrate. Move to a different location and try again
Usage:
Slide the IntelliSensor™ unit slowly across the surface in a straight line.
As it moves closer to the stud, red LEDs will go on. When it detects the stud edge, the top LED will go on and an audio tone will sound.
Use the handy pencil hole marker on the IntelliSensor™ unit to mark the stud edge.
Double check stud location by coming from the opposite direction. Make additional markings. The midpoint of the two marks indicates the stud center.
Cautions on Operating:
The proximity of electrical wiring or pipes to the surface of the wall may cause the IntelliSensor™ unit to detect them as studs. You should always use caution when nailing, cutting or drilling in walls, ceilings and floors that may contain these items. Always remember that studs or joists are normally spaced 16 inches or 24 inches apart and are 1-1/2 inches in width. To avoid surprises be aware that anything closer together or of a different width may not be a stud, joist or fire break.
Surface Differences
Wallpaper
There will be no difference in the function of the IntelliSensor™ Stud Sensor on surfaces covered with wallpaper or fabric unless the coverings used contain metallic foil or fibers.
Plaster and Lath
Unless lath and plaster construction is excessively thick, there will be no problem with proper functioning of the IntelliSensor™ unit.
Ceilings
When dealing with a rough surface such as a sprayed ceiling, utilize a piece of cardboard when scanning the surface. Run through the calibration technique described earlier with the piece of cardboard too, to assure best performance of the unit. Also, it is particularly important in this application to remember to keep your free hand away from the unit.
Specifications
Utilizing the procedure of scanning and marking from two sides, the IntelliSensor™ unit will find the stud center within 1/8" accuracy for wood and 1/4" accuracy for metal.
When measuring a wood stud under 3/4" drywall, it is recommended the IntelliSensorTM to be used at 35-55% relative humidity.
You need a "switch dummy". Also commonly called a "switch blank", "blank insert" and "blank filler".
The big box stores may not carry this item, if not, electrical supply house should have available.

I believe this is a 118mm j-type long / r7s base halogen lamp they do come in 500w , but also smaller 300,150,100 & 50w. When installing a halogen use the packing material or a clean tissue to hold the lamp. Finger oils cause the lamp to overheat and sometimes explode.
