Description
This is a warm white LED GLS bulb, the classic rounded pear shape most of us picture when we think of a light bulb, with a frosted opal finish and a silver-coloured E27 screw cap. It draws 8W and gives 806 lumens, so you get a generous, everyday level of light from a modest amount of power. The frosted finish spreads that light evenly across the bulb, which softens the glare a bare LED would give.
It fits any lamp or light fitting with an E27 lampholder, the larger Edison screw found on many table lamps, floor lamps and ceiling pendants. Warm white suits living rooms, bedrooms and dining rooms, where a cosy, relaxed light is what most of us want in the evening. Because it keeps the familiar GLS shape, it is a straightforward swap for an older bulb with the same cap, and it keeps the look of a traditional bulb.
The bulb carries an energy class of F, the rating to compare when you are weighing it against other bulbs on their energy labels. The 8W figure is what sets its running cost, while the 806 lumens tell you how much light it gives. Before you order, check that your lamp or fitting takes an E27 cap, because that one detail decides whether the bulb will fit. We would keep a spare in the drawer, so a bulb that reaches the end of its life never leaves a room dark for long.
