It puts out 1,521 lumens at 2700K, which the pack sells as a 100W replacement, and that is a fair reading: it is one of the brighter screw fit LED bulbs made for a domestic fitting. The frosted envelope earns its place at this output, because a clear bulb of the same brightness is uncomfortable to sit near.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eE27 is the larger of the two screw caps used in the UK, so check the old bulb before you order: a thread about 27mm across is E27, and a narrower one is E14. This suits the fittings that used to hold a 100W incandescent, so a ceiling pendant in a living room, a floor lamp beside a sofa, a kitchen ceiling rose, or a landing where one bulb does all the work. Warm white at 2700K keeps the soft yellow cast of old filament lighting rather than the blue edge of a daylight lamp, so it sits comfortably with wood, brass and warm paint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is not dimmable, so keep it off a dimmer circuit: a non dimmable LED on a dimmer tends to flicker or buzz instead of fading. The energy rating is E, and the label puts consumption at 14kWh per 1,000 hours. The pack prints a 25,000 hour life and instant start, which means full brightness the moment the switch is flicked. Each unit is one boxed bulb, and the minimum order is 10, sold in multiples of 10. It sits alongside a dimmable B15 candle bulb in the same warm white 2700K, if you want one tone across different fittings.\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\u003eE27 (ES) screw\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eShape\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGLS\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\u003e13.6W\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrightness\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1,521lm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEquivalent\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e100W, as stated on the pack\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour temperature\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2700K, warm white\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\u003eEnergy rating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eE\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLifespan as printed\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e25,000 hours\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSold as\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSingle bulb, boxed\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMinimum order\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10, sold in multiples of 10\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\u003eMy old bulb pushes in and twists.

On a dimmer circuit a non dimmable LED will usually flicker, buzz or refuse to switch on properly, so wire it to a plain on and off switch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs an IP rating given for this bulb?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer does not print one on the pack or state one in the specification, so treat it as an ordinary lamp for dry indoor fittings and nothing more demanding.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy does the box say 100W when the bulb draws 13.6W?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 100W figure is the old filament bulb it replaces for brightness.
