Description
This is an amber LED GLS bulb, the classic pear-shaped bulb in tinted amber glass, with a spiral LED filament coiled up through its centre. It measures 10.6cm long and 6cm in diameter, and the brass-coloured E27 screw cap fits any standard E27 lampholder. It draws 8W and gives 806lm of warm light at a colour temperature of 2700K. Its IP rating is IP20, and that settles where it belongs: indoors, in dry rooms, in a table lamp, floor lamp, pendant or wall light kept away from steam and splashes.
The amber glass is the heart of this bulb. Amber glass tints light towards a deeper, honeyed gold, so a bare pendant over a dining table, along a hallway or on a landing takes on the mellow glow of an old-fashioned filament bulb while drawing just 8W. The spiral filament stays on show as part of the look, which makes this bulb a good choice wherever the bulb itself is visible: open cage shades, clear glass pendants and wall lights with an exposed lampholder. At 806lm and 2700K it gives a warm, cosy light that suits living rooms, bedrooms, dining rooms and cafe-style corners.
The bulb runs on mains power at 220-240V, 50/60Hz, and carries an energy class of F. It weighs 0.074KG packed. Before fitting it, check that your lamp or fitting takes an E27 screw cap and has room for a bulb 10.6cm long and 6cm in diameter. To clean it, switch it off, let the glass cool, then wipe it gently with a soft, dry cloth, keeping sprays and water well away. A light dusting now and then keeps the amber glass clear and the spiral filament easy to see whenever the bulb is lit.
