Description
This is a compact LED capsule bulb with a G9 cap, made for the small fittings that take a slim push-in bulb rather than a screw or bayonet one. A clear glass body surrounds a column of tiny LED chips, and two looped pins at the white base locate it in the G9 lampholder. It is 4.9cm long with a diameter of 1.6cm, so the one thing worth checking is that your fitting has room for a bulb that size. It draws 3W and gives 320lm of cool white light at 4000K. The rating is IP20, which settles where it belongs: indoors, in dry rooms.
Cool white at 4000K is a crisp, neutral light, and we suggest it for rooms where you want to see clearly: kitchens, studies, home offices, utility rooms and hallways. It suits pendants, wall lights and multi-arm ceiling lights that take G9 bulbs, and in a fitting that holds several, a matched set gives the same cool white tone across every arm. Because it is dimmable, on a dimmer switch you can bring the light down for a calmer evening and return to full brightness whenever there is work to do. It is a sensible choice for anyone replacing a tired capsule who wants the clean look of a clear bulb in an open fitting.
The bulb runs at 220-240V, 50/60Hz, carries an energy class of F and weighs just 0.023KG packed. Glass wipes clean easily, so with the light switched off and cool, a soft dry cloth keeps the body clear. Before you order, note the G9 cap and the 4.9cm length, check your fitting has room for them, and you will have the right bulb first time.
