E27 Golf Ball 5.9W LED Bulb - Daylight

This E27 golf ball LED bulb takes the compact G45 form, a small rounded shape that sits neatly in pendants, lamps and fittings where a full-size bulb would look bulky. It fits the E27 Edison Screw cap, known as ES, and draws just 5.9W while putting out 806 lumens, so it replaces an old 60W incandescent on a fraction of the energy. The light is a crisp 6500K daylight tone, and the 150 degree beam angle spreads the output widely rather than focusing it in one direction. American buyers will recognise the screw-cap golf ball as a small candelabra-style globe on the standard medium E27 base.

Because it spreads light across a wide 150 degree angle, this bulb suits open fittings, multi-arm pendants and table or floor lamps where an even wash matters more than a tight beam. The daylight 6500K colour gives a clean, bright feel that works well in kitchens, home offices, utility areas and reading spots where you want clear, neutral light. It is rated IP20 for dry indoor use only, so keep it clear of bathrooms, porches and any outdoor or damp location. With a Ra 90 colour rendering, it shows colours and detail accurately, which helps in task areas and anywhere true tones are useful.

Built around a G45 golf ball housing with a white finish and an E27 screw cap, the bulb measures just 45mm across and 77mm tall and weighs only 20g. It runs on 220 to 240V AC mains and reaches an efficiency of 137 lm/W, with a rated lifespan of 25,000 hours. This is a non-dimmable bulb, so pair it with a standard non-dimming circuit rather than a dimmer switch. Niori stocks a wider range of E27 golf ball bulbs in alternative colour temperatures to match the rest of a room.

Product Specification Sheet

Range Datasheet

Which cap or fitting does this bulb use?

It has an E27 cap, also called Edison Screw or ES, which is the larger of the two common screw fittings. It twists straight into any standard E27 lampholder. Check that your fitting is E27 rather than the smaller E14 before ordering.

What old-bulb wattage does it replace?

The LED draws only 5.9W itself but delivers 806 lumens, which matches the output of a typical 60W incandescent golf ball bulb. You get the same brightness for roughly a tenth of the energy. The 5.9W figure is the actual power the bulb consumes.

Is this bulb dimmable?

No, this is a non-dimmable bulb. It should be used on a standard on/off circuit and not connected to a dimmer switch, as doing so can cause flicker or shorten its life. If you need dimming, choose a bulb that is specifically rated as dimmable.

What does the 6500K daylight colour look like?

At 6500K the light is a crisp, cool daylight white, brighter and cleaner-looking than warm white. It suits kitchens, offices and task areas where clear, neutral light helps. The Ra 90 colour rendering also keeps colours and detail looking accurate.
