Description
The Eveready 13.8W LED GLS bulb provides 1521 lumens of 3000K warm white light through a standard B22 bayonet cap fitting, delivering the output of a traditional 100W incandescent at 86% lower power draw. This multipack contains six bulbs in individual boxes, providing complete household replacements for ceiling pendants, table lamps and floor lamps in one purchase.
Designed for general lighting across living rooms, bedrooms, hallways and dining rooms, the GLS (General Lighting Service) shape matches the profile of traditional incandescent bulbs, fitting the same shades and fittings without adapters or modifications. The 3000K colour temperature sits in the warm white band, producing a soft yellow-white light that works well in residential settings where task lighting isn't the primary requirement. The bulb is non-dimmable and should not be used with dimmer switches.
Each bulb is rated for 15,000 hours of operation at typical household usage patterns, which translates to approximately 10 years when used 4 hours per day. The GLS envelope is made from standard glass with a frosted coating that diffuses the LED array inside, preventing visible hotspots when the bulb is mounted in an open fitting. The B22 bayonet cap fits all standard UK ceiling roses, pendant holders and lamp sockets with a twist-and-lock action.
The multipack format reduces packaging waste and provides spares for multiple rooms in one delivery. At 13.8W per bulb, running all six simultaneously draws less power than two traditional 100W incandescents, making the switch to LED economically viable within the first year of use in high-traffic areas where lights run for extended periods.

Frequently Asked
Can these bulbs be used with dimmer switches?
No. This Eveready bulb is non-dimmable and will flicker, buzz or fail prematurely if connected to a dimmer circuit. If you need dimmable B22 LEDs, use the site search or filters to find dimmable variants.
What does the 100W equivalent mean?
The bulb produces the same light output (1521 lumens) as a traditional 100W incandescent bulb, but consumes only 13.8W of power. This is the brightness comparison, not the power consumption.
How long do these bulbs last?
Eveready rates them at 15,000 hours, which equates to approximately 10 years at 4 hours of daily use. Actual lifespan depends on usage patterns and the quality of the mains supply.
What colour is the light?
3000K is classified as warm white. The light appears soft yellow-white, similar to halogen bulbs and warmer than daylight LEDs (which run 5000K-6500K). It suits residential interiors where a cosy rather than clinical appearance is preferred.
