Lighting – What size bulb replaces these in a Harbor Beeze ceiling fan

ceiling-fanlight-fixturelighting

My house has several Harbor Breeze ceiling fans. Two bulbs have burned out but I can't seem to find what size bulbs should replace them. Here's a picture of one of the burned bulbs (right) and a generic ceiling fan bulb with an intermediate A15 base (left).

I've searched around Home Depot and Amazon but haven't found what size this is. There's also no model number on the outside of the fan that I can find to look up the manual. Any ideas?

I have 6 of the 52" Harbor Breeze fan/lights.

I believe you are looking for a "G" shaped bulb, with a base of "16.5" not to exceed 60 watts.

A 60 watt incandescent bulb is equivalent to (8 to 9) watt LED bulb. If you chose to go with a LED replacement.

So the packaging must say "G16.5" 120v and whatever wattage you would like, just as long as you do not exceed 60 watts incandescent or 9 watt LED.

Halogen bulbs put out a lot of heat, may even melt fixture, I would NOT use a Halogen bulb.

Hope this helps!
