Description
The Eveready 4.9W E14 LED candle bulb delivers 470 lumens of 6500K daylight-white light through a classic candle profile with a frosted opal finish. The E14 small Edison screw base fits standard decorative fixtures including chandeliers, wall sconces and bedside table lamps. At 4.9W consumption the bulb provides light output comparable to a 40W incandescent while drawing one-tenth the power.
Designed for task-focused environments requiring crisp visibility, the 6500K colour temperature sits at the cool end of the spectrum and suits kitchens, home offices, workshops and utility rooms where colour accuracy and alertness matter. The 280° beam angle provides wide distribution from a candle-shaped source, minimising shadows beneath multi-arm chandeliers and wall brackets. The bulb is rated for 10,000 on/off switching cycles, making it suitable for high-traffic areas and sensor-controlled installations.
The frosted opal glass diffuses the LED chip evenly across the candle shape, avoiding visible hotspots when used in open or transparent shades. At 53mm diameter and 110mm height the bulb fits most E14 candle-rated fixtures without protruding beyond decorative glass or metal frames. The mercury-free construction meets current UK waste electrical regulations and the bulb carries an F energy rating under the 2021 EU-derived labelling scale.
The 10-year lifespan assumes three hours of daily use at typical household switching frequency. Eveready rates the bulb for 230V UK mains supply and the non-dimmable driver is not compatible with dimmer switches or leading/trailing edge controls.

Frequently Asked
Is this bulb suitable for living rooms or bedrooms?
The 6500K daylight colour temperature is quite cool and crisp, better suited to task environments like kitchens, offices and workshops. For living rooms and bedrooms most users prefer 2700K-3000K warm white bulbs which create a more relaxed atmosphere.
Can it be used with a dimmer switch?
No. The bulb is non-dimmable and will not function correctly with dimmer switches. Installing a non-dimmable bulb on a dimmer circuit can cause flickering, buzzing or premature failure.
What's the brightness compared to an old incandescent bulb?
At 470 lumens the bulb provides comparable light output to a 40W incandescent candle bulb, while consuming only 4.9W. The daylight colour temperature can make the light feel slightly brighter to the eye than a warm-white equivalent at the same lumen output.
How long does the bulb last?
Eveready rates the bulb for a 10-year lifespan based on three hours of daily use. It is also rated for 10,000 switching cycles, meaning it handles frequent on/off use in hallways, bathrooms and sensor-controlled areas without shortening lifespan.
