De Broglie Equation use

Why can't you use the De Broglie equation with light?

I believe that you cannot use the De Broglie equation with light because light does not have mass, and the equation is used for items with mass.

The equation can be only used for wavelike instances that have mass. Since light lacks mass, it can not be used.
