Description
Our Clear LED Vintage Bulb gives a modern LED the look of an old-fashioned filament bulb. The clear glass is shaped like a tall teardrop, widest near the crown and narrowing towards a silver-coloured E27 screw cap, with a small rounded tip at the very top. Inside, four slim LED filaments stand upright, so the bulb looks as good switched off as it does lit. It measures 14.2cm long and 6.4cm across. Rated at 7W, it gives 806lm of warm white light at 2700K, and its IP20 rating means it belongs indoors in dry rooms.
Because the glass is clear and the filaments are on show, this bulb suits fittings where the bulb itself is part of the look: a bare pendant over a dining table, a simple lamp holder in a hallway or an open shade beside a reading chair. The 2700K warm white has the soft, golden tone that sits comfortably in living rooms and bedrooms, and 806lm gives a useful amount of light rather than a faint glow. We like a few hung at different heights for a café-style cluster. It is a straightforward swap for any E27 holder where an older bulb has been doing the job.
This bulb is not dimmable, so use it with a standard light switch rather than a dimmer. It runs on 220-240V, 50/60Hz mains, carries energy class D and weighs 0.096KG packed. Glass is fragile, so hold the bulb by its metal cap as you screw it home, and let it cool fully before you change it. To keep the filaments looking crisp, wipe the glass now and then with a soft, dry cloth while the light is switched off and cool. Check that your lamp holder takes an E27 cap, and the bulb is ready to go straight into place.
