Description
This opal globe is a dimmable LED bulb with an E27 screw cap, 14cm long and 9.5cm across. The round glass is finished in opal, a milky white that diffuses the light, so instead of a bright point you see the whole ball glow evenly. It draws 7.5W and gives 806lm of warm white light at 2700K, the soft, slightly golden tone most people want in a living room or bedroom. Its IP20 rating settles where it belongs: indoors, in dry rooms, away from splashing water.
Because the whole globe glows, this is a bulb to leave on show rather than hide. It suits a bare pendant over a dining table or kitchen island, an open lamp holder on a wall light, or a table lamp with an open shade, wherever a plain bulb would look unfinished. At 806lm it gives a generous amount of light for a single bulb, and the warm tone keeps a room relaxed in the evening. The E27 cap is the large screw cap, so check that your lamp holder takes E27 and that the shade or pendant has room for a globe 14cm long before you order.
Being dimmable, the bulb can be turned right down for a quiet supper and brought back up when you need to read, as long as it runs on a dimmer switch made for LED bulbs. It works on 220 to 240V at 50/60Hz, the standard household mains supply, and has an energy class of D. Packed, it weighs just 0.11KG, so a spare is easy to keep in a drawer. To clean it, let the glass cool after use and wipe it with a soft, dry cloth. Where a room has several lamp holders, fit the same bulb in each and the light will match in colour and tone.
