Why is it a special lamp is sold at stores like Home Depot for garages.
Namely, a "garage door lamp - 60 watts"?

Will any 60 watt bulb do? My local Home Depot is out of stock.


I've always used plain 60 watt bulbs in my openers. I rarely have
had to change them. However, I always use rough service bulbs in my
trouble lights that I use when working on the cars.
