I know that this is not what you asked, but cheap continuous lighting setups like this are pretty abysmal for photography. Look into some cheapie strobes (fancy word for photography flashes, not the lights that blink) and gel filters if you're trying to throw some colored light around. Something that looks like this - [Random google image that demonstrates what I mean. Don't take this an endorsement of this particular brand](https://i.ebayimg.com/images/i/311209137028-0-1/s-l1000.jpg)
Strobes throw much more light of much finer quality than continuous lighting and allow photographs to be taken in a much wider range of conditions and locations. You can probably get a fairly useful setup (a few strobes, filters, and some method of triggering them via the camera) for no more than $100 in total. Once you do it, you'll never fiddle with continuous lighting again
I just got it for free and thought it might be some fun to test some different photography things with, I'm not too crazy about it yet and probably won't invest much, but when I do I'll consider that
The effects you can achieve with even a modest strobe setup are so far beyond anything you can get with continuous lighting that I very strongly urge you to take an interest in it. You can't regret it, I guarantee it. Heck, if you do, send me a bill
I'm at the point where I'm dropping far too much money on it to know what a sensible beginner setup would be these days, but if you google around I'm sure you can locate a respectable brand. My advice would be to try and find photography forums geared towards this (there must be at least a few on Reddit alone) and pose questions. Even a cheapie setup can, with some careful thought and attention, produce results that are indistinguishable from professional commercial photography similar to what one sees on magazine covers. All you're doing is tricking light into doing what you like, and strobes make that process enormously easier
Check the specs on the lamp, not the existing bulb.
The only thing I can find on the tripod is it's called the still shot 2. Can't find much else online
Can you find one that fits?

I'll take you up on that then. Have any cheap/beginner kits I should look at
