Description
The Eveready 8W E27 GLS LED filament bulb is a direct replacement for a 75W incandescent bulb, delivering 1,050 lumens of warm white light at 2700K through visible LED filaments inside a clear glass envelope. The E27 Edison screw base fits standard UK lamp holders and ceiling pendants, and the 280-degree beam angle provides near-omnidirectional light distribution similar to a traditional tungsten bulb.
Designed for general ambient lighting in living rooms, dining rooms, bedrooms and hallways, the bulb suits table lamps, floor lamps, ceiling pendants and open-shade fittings where the filament is visible. The GLS (General Lighting Service) shape is the classic pear-shaped bulb profile, measuring 60mm diameter and 109mm height, so it fits the majority of UK domestic light fittings without protruding or overhanging the shade.
The visible LED filaments inside the clear glass give the bulb the aesthetic of a vintage Edison bulb when lit, while the 8W power draw reduces running costs by approximately 89% compared to the 75W incandescent equivalent. The bulb operates on 220-240V mains and carries an Energy Rating E under current UK regulations. This version is non-dimmable and should be used on standard on/off circuits only.

Frequently Asked
Can this bulb be used with a dimmer switch?
No. This version is non-dimmable and must be used on standard on/off circuits only. Installing it on a dimmer circuit may cause flickering, buzzing or premature failure. If dimming is required, look for Eveready's dimmable E27 LED bulbs in the same wattage range.
What incandescent wattage does this replace?
The 8W LED output is equivalent to a 75W incandescent bulb in brightness (1,050 lumens). This makes it suitable for rooms where moderate to bright ambient light is needed without high energy consumption.
How long does the bulb last?
LED bulbs in this range typically provide 10,000-15,000 hours of operation. At an average use of 3 hours per day, this translates to approximately 9-13 years before replacement is needed. The packaging indicates 10 years of life under typical residential use.
What colour is the light?
The bulb emits warm white light at 2700K, which matches the colour temperature of traditional incandescent bulbs. This creates a yellowish, cosy tone suited to living areas, bedrooms and dining rooms rather than the cooler white light used in kitchens or bathrooms.
