By: Dakota Digital The bayonet cap is probably the most familiar light bulb to the majority of customers, with it's familiar shape and the easy-to-follow 'push then twist' action used to connect it to the light fixture. They come in two sizes, 22mm and 15mm, and they are most commonly used for mains voltage lamps. There are occasionally some variants, such as the 3-pin bayonet cap, but for standard household fittings the basic bayonet cap, known as a 'BC', will suffice.

Another of the most well-known light bulb bases is the Edison screw, named after the inventor Thomas Edison who was credited with creating the electric light bulb as we know it today. There are many different sizes of Edison screw base so it is worth checking any fixtures for the exact measurement before purchasing.
