A touch switchable lamp is provided having a base with conductive and non-conductive parts. A conductive coating substantially covers the non-conductive parts of the base and is in electrical contact with at least some of the conductive parts. A switching unit having a touch responsive control terminal is electrically connected with the conductive coating and the conductive parts of the base. A light bulb receptacle is also electrically connected with the switching unit so that whenever a human body is brought into close proximity to the conductive parts or the conductive coating of the base which are electrically connected to the touch responsive control terminal of the switching unit, the switching unit responds by switching the mode of operation of a light bulb between at least a first and second mode of operation.
