Description
The Energizer 5W LED candle bulb uses a visible filament-style LED element inside a clear glass candle envelope, producing 550 lumens at 4000K cool white from a B22 bayonet base. The 5W power draw replaces traditional 40W incandescent candle bulbs at one-eighth of the energy consumption, rated E for energy efficiency under current UK regulations.
Designed for pendant fittings, wall sconces, chandeliers and table lamps that take B22 bayonet bulbs, the candle shape suits decorative fittings where the bulb remains visible. The cool white 4000K output produces a neutral, crisp light that sits between warm ambient lighting and daylight-style task lighting, making it suitable for kitchens, hallways, bathrooms and offices where clarity is needed without the warmth of 2700K-3000K bulbs.
The bulb is fully dimmable, allowing light levels to be adjusted from full 550-lumen output down to a low glow when paired with a compatible LED dimmer. The exposed filament LED element gives the visual appearance of a traditional incandescent candle bulb when lit, combining the aesthetic of visible filament with the lifespan and efficiency of LED technology. Energizer rates the bulb at a 15-year lifespan based on average domestic use.

Frequently Asked
Is this bulb dimmable?
Yes. The bulb works with most LED-compatible dimmers, allowing output to be adjusted from full 550 lumens down to a low glow. Dimmer compatibility depends on the specific dimmer model — older incandescent-only dimmers may cause flickering or buzzing.
What colour is 4000K cool white?
4000K sits in the neutral-to-cool range, appearing as a crisp white light without the yellow warmth of 2700K-3000K bulbs or the blue cast of 5000K+ daylight bulbs. It suits kitchens, bathrooms, offices and task lighting where clarity is needed.
What does the filament look like when lit?
The LED filament element inside the clear glass envelope glows amber-gold when lit, mimicking the appearance of a traditional incandescent candle bulb. The filament is visible through the glass, making it suitable for decorative fittings where the bulb remains exposed.
What fittings does B22 suit?
B22 is the standard UK bayonet cap, fitting most traditional pendant lights, wall sconces, chandeliers and table lamps sold in the UK. The candle shape suits decorative fittings and shades designed for visible bulbs.
