Energizer 4.9W LED Candle Bulb B22 Warm White 3000K Non-Dimmable (2 Pack)

The Energizer LED candle bulb is a 4.9W B22 bayonet-cap replacement for 40W incandescent candle bulbs, delivering 470 lumens of 3000K warm white light. The candle shape measures 35mm wide by 102mm tall and suits traditional chandeliers, wall sconces, and decorative table lamps where the bulb is visible or partially exposed. This is a non-dimmable bulb rated at Energy Class F under current EU labelling.

Designed for consistent ambient light in living rooms, bedrooms, dining rooms and hallways, the bulb provides a steady warm-white output without flicker. The 280-degree beam angle spreads light widely across a room rather than focusing it into a narrow cone, making it suitable for general ambient lighting rather than task or spot use. The B22 bayonet fitting is standard in most UK domestic light fittings, and the bulb installs with a simple push-and-twist action.

Each pack contains two bulbs, allowing you to light a pair of matching wall lights or two points on a multi-bulb chandelier with the same colour temperature and brightness. At 4.9W draw, each bulb uses approximately 88% less electricity than the 40W incandescent it replaces, while the 470-lumen output provides comparable visible brightness in typical domestic settings. The frosted candle envelope diffuses the LED chip inside, giving a softer light distribution than clear-glass candle bulbs.

Can this bulb be used with a dimmer switch?

No. This is a non-dimmable LED bulb. Installing it in a circuit controlled by a dimmer switch may cause flicker, buzzing, or early failure. If you need dimmable candle bulbs, look for models specifically marked as dimmable in the Energizer range or use the filters on Niori to find dimmable alternatives.

What wattage incandescent does this replace?

The 4.9W LED output of 470 lumens is comparable to a 40W incandescent candle bulb in typical domestic settings. The actual brightness perceived depends on the fitting and reflector design, but 470 lumens is the recognised equivalent for general ambient use.

What does the 3000K colour temperature look like?

3000K is a warm white tone with a slight yellow cast, similar to traditional incandescent bulbs. It provides a cosy, inviting light suited to living rooms, bedrooms and dining areas. It is warmer than daylight-white bulbs (4000K+) but not as amber-toned as extra-warm 2700K LEDs.

How long do these bulbs last?

Energizer does not specify rated hours on the packaging shown, but LED candle bulbs of this type typically last 10,000-15,000 hours depending on usage patterns. At three hours per day, that would be approximately 9-13 years before replacement is needed.
