Unable to get lampshade off

Just thought, if the light goes out, is it easy to replace the lighting part or need to replace the whole thing?

You’ll need to give us a link to the make and model. Cannot tell without that.

You might. have a chance providing it`s not stuck up onto the ceiling paper using double sided tape as the only fixing - yes I have discovered such a thing.

I did hear tell of an instance of a smoke detector waking someone up thanks to being installed by that method - apparently there was a fire in a nearby room and some of the hot air had entered the bedroom around the ceiling area, the tape became goohy and the detector fall onto the bed and fortunately alerted the occupant even though the smoke detector had previously had the battery removed.
Quite a coincidence!

Well although unorthodox all I can say is: Good job they had a smoke detector that worked

Yup - not as the manufacturer intended but I wonder if they now include the instruction.

If mounting in a bedroom then place on ceiling above headboard and fix in place with double sided tape if intended for use without batteries .
