Bright candelabra base light bulbs?
I have some sconce wall fixtures that take candelabra base bulbs, max 60 watt bulb. I’ve tried incandescent 60W and CFL 14w, but neither seems very bright.
Anyone know where to get maybe a 23-30w CFL with a candelabra base? I don’t have enough height on the globes to use a candelabra-to-medium base adapter.

I had the same problem with a fixture I liked, so I just replaced the socket with a regular sized one so I could fit a CFL.
Not a UL approved change of course.

LOL, my first choice would be a brighter bulb.
This will teach me to pay closer attention to the bulb base when I'm buying lights/fans.jt8
