What are the maximum wattage light bulbs this fixture will be able to use?

By law, new ceiling fan light kits are limited to 190 watts total, and have watt limiters installed (no cheating). This kit has a maximum wattage of 40 watts per bulb. But keep in mind, you can use CFL or LED bulbs, which will give you the same or greater lumens (light output) for less wattage per bulb. So you could use 500 lumen LED bulbs (60w equivalent) for about 7 watts per bulb. LEDs are more expensive, but save electricity and last for decades (less changing bulbs on your 16 foot ceilings!)
