You'd need to talk with the installing electrician. Some wiring is specific to locations and the wattages may vary. In general, it should be safe to transfer it over, but it's always safer to ask before you risk burning the bulb out in either socket.

But even though it's a lightbulb (and lightbulbs the world over share a lightbulb bond), maybe the new place won't let the lighbulb join in their lightbulb games...

Just a thought.

35 to scream at the darkness that not having a light bulb is causing!
1 to protest the use of the word "screw"
A gazillion to applaud BBelle's ingeniusness (is that a word?).

Alas, my sister, I shalt not take credit for that that is not mine!
It was on another forum I frequent, and the minute I read it I knew I had to bring it over here-with a few omissions, additions, and revisions, of course! And I have no idea if the person over there was the author of this, as no credit was given-probably not, me thinks.

Then, my dear sister, I congratulate your ability to adapt this for our fun!

1 vertically-challenged person to complain about the height of said lightbulb. Same person gives up on changing the lightbulb and goes on to write a blog bitching about some carpentry companies who refuse to make ceilings shorter just so they can reach the lightbulb without any assistance.

At least one posting of someone dieing while changing a light bulb.
(All joking aside, thought of this just before I saw a news story of just that happening in a Government building the other day)

1 post of someone telling how their roomate pledging an underground line got hurt and almost died in a 'hazing incident' while illegally (he fell of a human ladder and broke his legs) changing lightbulbs at the wrong time of the year against campus regulations because they 'were coerced' by the brothers of the fraternity (if they didn't change it they would never cross) and the parents contemplated suing the school, the fraternity and the company that manufactured the lightbulbs.....


Not to mention another post about someone who bragged about how their lightbulb changing process was harder than anyone else and that they was the hardest lightbulb changing line....ever.

Followed up by a post from DSTCHAOS telling that person "who gives a sh*t."
