It draws 3W and gives 250 lumens, and the cap is E14, the smaller of the two screw fittings, marked SES on some old bulbs and in fitting instructions. The colour temperature is 2,700K warm white, the yellow leaning tone people expect from an old filament lamp rather than the whiter light of an office. The pack states that it replaces a 25W incandescent bulb, and the opal outer softens the diode behind it so a thin shade shows a diffused glow rather than bright points.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe E14 cap turns up most often on multi arm chandeliers, wall lights, small pendants and bedside lamps, so these are usually bought several at a time to fill one fitting. The 180 degree beam angle throws light sideways as well as forward, which suits an open or upward facing shade better than a narrow spot would. If you are unsure which cap you have, the number is the thread diameter in millimetres: an E14 measures 14mm across and the more common E27 measures 27mm, and the two will not swap.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis one is not dimmable. Non dimmable LEDs are not built for dimmer circuits, where they can flicker, buzz or fail early, so keep it on a plain on and off switch and choose a dimmable lamp where the level needs to vary. The pack prints a 15 year lifespan, and the energy label rates it G at 3 kWh per 1000 hours. Each unit is one bulb in a blister, and the minimum order is 12, sold in multiples of 12. It sits alongside our other LED bulbs in caps such as B15 (SBC) and GU10.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFitting\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eE14 (SES)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eShape\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGolf\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTechnology\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLED\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWattage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3W\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrightness\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e250lm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEquivalent\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e25W, as stated on the pack\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour temperature\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2,700K warm white\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBeam angle\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e180 degrees\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDimmable\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNo\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIP rating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIP20\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEnergy rating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eG\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLifespan as printed\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e15 year lifespan, as printed on the pack\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSold as\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOne bulb in a blister\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMinimum order\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12, sold in multiples of 12\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill this fit a lampholder marked SES?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes.
