Scentsy replacement bulbs feature an energy efficiency (EC)
range of A+++ to E, with an Energy Star rating. They operate at low energy
consumption levels but are considered low efficiency since they primarily
function to generate heat for melting wax.
Scentsy Bulb Wattage & Compatibility
The "EC Range" of a Scentsy bulb correlates with
its wattage. Standard ratings require specific wattages depending on your
warmer:
- 15-Watt:
Used for plug-in warmers and tabletop nightlights.
- 20-Watt:
Designed for mid-size warmers.
- 25-Watt:
The standard size for most large, full-size warmers.
- 40-Watt:
Edison-style bulbs for select open-glass full-size warmers.
