Is this bulb fit a regular household light bulb socket?

No it fits a socket called an e-17. You can purchase an e-26 to e-17 adapter here on Amazon and be able to screw it into a household light bulb socket. But be careful, this bulb supposedly operates on 11 volts, so household voltage will immediately blow it. I bought 3 of these bulbs for a homemade portable UV-c sanitizer. It was difficult to find any specifications on the bulb. On set stated the bulb operates on 11 volts and another stated 14.5 volts. I just ordered the adapters, and will first try it out with 12 volt transformer. It is supposed to draw 300 ma.

what is the actual wavelength of the light produced? in nanometers please. not just "uv-c" etc. thanks. is it 200 nm? or 253 nm ? or what? thanks.

The UV-C lamp has a wavelangth of 253.7 nm. If you need additional information contact yourfriends@guardiantechnologies.com or call 1-866-603-5900 x213 M-F 8-4:30 EST.

Does this UV bulb create negative (or positive) ions, like some of the light bulbs from other manufacturers do?

This bulb does not create ions as it is a UV-C light. If further assistance is needed please contact us at yourfriends@guardiantechnologies.com or at 866-603-5900 X213 M-F 8:30-4:30 EST.
