Description
The Eveready R50 is a 4.5W LED reflector bulb with an E14 small Edison screw base, delivering 450 lumens of warm white 3000K light at 110° beam angle. Each bulb measures 50mm diameter by 85mm height and is non-dimmable, designed for 230V mains voltage operation. The twin pack provides two bulbs for matching pairs in wall lights, bedside lamps or kitchen cabinet fittings.
Designed for directional lighting applications where a focused beam is needed rather than omnidirectional spread, the R50 reflector shape suits recessed ceiling downlights, reading lamps, display lighting and under-cabinet kitchen fixtures. The 110° beam angle is wider than traditional spotlights but narrower than standard bulbs, providing defined illumination zones without hard edges. The 4.5W power draw produces equivalent light output to a 40W incandescent at roughly one-tenth of the running cost.
The 3000K colour temperature produces warm white light that sits between soft white and neutral white, making it comfortable for residential living spaces, bedrooms and hallways where cooler LED tones can feel clinical. The CRI rating above 80 ensures that fabric colours, wood tones and skin tones render naturally under the light rather than appearing washed out. The bulbs carry an F energy rating under current EU labelling and an average rated lifespan of 10 years based on typical domestic use patterns.
The E14 base is the small Edison screw fitting common in UK and European decorative lighting, approximately 14mm diameter at the thread. This is distinct from the E27 standard Edison screw (27mm) used in most table lamps and ceiling pendants. The R50 designation refers to the reflector diameter of 50mm, making these bulbs suitable for smaller fittings where the larger R63 or R80 reflector sizes would not fit.

Frequently Asked
Is this bulb dimmable?
No. The Eveready R50 is non-dimmable and should not be used with dimmer switches. Using a non-dimmable LED on a dimmer circuit can cause flickering, reduced lifespan or complete failure of the bulb.
What's the difference between E14 and E27?
E14 is the small Edison screw with a 14mm thread diameter, commonly found in decorative wall lights, bedside lamps and smaller fittings. E27 is the standard Edison screw at 27mm diameter, used in most table lamps and ceiling pendants. The two are not interchangeable.
What does the 110° beam angle mean?
The beam angle describes how wide the light spreads from the bulb. At 110°, the R50 produces a moderately focused beam suitable for task lighting and directional applications. This is wider than a narrow spotlight but more controlled than a standard bulb which typically spreads light at 200° or more.
How long do these bulbs last?
Eveready rates the R50 at approximately 10 years average lifespan based on typical domestic use of around 2.7 hours per day. Actual lifespan varies depending on operating hours, ambient temperature and switching frequency.
