Description
This E27 GLS LED bulb takes the classic rounded A60 household shape and screws into a standard Edison Screw (ES) socket. It draws just 4.9W while putting out 500 lumens, the kind of output you would once have needed a 41W old-style bulb to reach. The light is 4000K cool white, a crisp neutral tone, and the wide 180 degree beam spreads it broadly rather than focusing it, so the bulb suits open shades, pendants and fittings that throw light across a space.
The familiar A60 form makes this a straightforward drop-in for general lighting around the home, in table and floor lamps, hallway and landing fittings, kitchens and utility areas where a clear, neutral light helps with everyday tasks. As an A60 with an E27 cap it fits the great majority of household and many commercial fittings. Note that it is rated IP20, so keep it to dry indoor positions and clear of bathrooms, porches and any outdoor or damp locations. The 180 degree spread gives even, ambient coverage rather than a tight directional pool, which is why it works well in shades open at the bottom.
Build is a standard opal A60 envelope on an E27 Edison Screw base, measuring 60mm across and 107mm long and weighing only 30g. It runs on 220 to 240V AC at an efficiency of 102 lm/W, with a colour rendering of Ra 80 and a rated life of 15,000 hours. This is a non-dimmable bulb, so pair it with a standard on/off circuit rather than a dimmer switch. The white finish keeps it neutral in any fitting.

Frequently Asked
Which fitting does this bulb need?
It has an E27 Edison Screw (ES) cap, the larger screw fitting found on many lamps and pendants. As a standard A60 shape it drops straight into most household fittings that take an E27 bulb.
What old bulb wattage does it replace?
It draws just 4.9W yet gives 500 lumens, which matches the brightness of a 41W traditional bulb. The 4.9W figure is the bulb's actual power use, so it cuts running costs while keeping the same light level.
Is this bulb dimmable?
No, this is a non-dimmable bulb. Use it on a standard on/off circuit rather than a dimmer switch, as fitting it to a dimmer can cause flicker or buzzing and shorten its life.
Warm or cool light, and how long does it last?
It is 4000K cool white, a clear neutral tone that sits between warm and daylight and suits kitchens, hallways and task areas. It is rated for 15,000 hours of use with a colour rendering of Ra 80.
