Home Decorating Lighting Design Dilemma

Modern ceiling fan that uses BULBS???

5 years ago

I am looking for a modern ceiling fan for my bedroom that uses lightbulbs, but most of them seem to only have integrated lighting. I have a ceiling fan in another room with integrated lighting and I'm not crazy about it. I'm fine with LED, but I'd rather it be in a light bulb instead of being stuck with whatever color, brightness, etc. comes with the fan. There are sconces and a table lamp in the bedroom already, but I still want to be able to use the overhead light when I need it. The only ceiling fans that still take bulbs are by Hunter. They are nice, but I'm wondering if there is anything else out there?

Why even select a fan with a light kit? The quality of the light from the bulbs is never good and rooms end up looking like basements.

following along. @BeverlyFLADeziner I'm not sure where OP resides, but I"m in the South and of an age where I MUST have a fan at night!

This 42" Antron Ceiling Fan includes a G9 halogen bulb according to the specs. There are LED G9 bulbs that you could presumably swap in to reduce heat and improve energy efficiency.

This 60" Velocity Ceiling Fan also uses a bulb.

Added: Hunter Dempsey fans also have bulbs.
