Description
This is an LED candle bulb in opal glass, the milky white finish that softens the light and spreads it evenly across the whole shape. It is 9.8cm long and 3.5cm in diameter, with an E14 small screw cap, so it suits the slimmer bulb holders used in many wall lights, chandeliers and smaller pendants. It draws 7W and gives 806lm of warm light at 2700K, a comfortable colour for evenings at home. Its IP20 rating settles where it goes: indoors, in dry rooms.
We would put it in a living room, bedroom, dining room or hallway, anywhere you want a gentle glow rather than a hard point of light. At 2700K the colour sits at the warm end of white, and 806lm is a generous output for a bulb this slim. The opal glass earns its place most when the bulb is on show, in an open pendant or a fitting with a clear shade, because you see one soft, even shape rather than the bright LED itself. It suits anyone who wants a warm, even light from just 7W. It also suits anyone matching a set of candle bulbs across a chandelier or a pair of wall lights so they all look the same.
The bulb is not dimmable, so it belongs in a fitting worked by an ordinary switch rather than a dimmer. It runs on 220-240V, 50/60Hz mains, carries an energy class of D and weighs 0.038KG packed. The glass is opal from tip to collar, and the cap is silver in colour, so it looks neat even where the base of the bulb shows. Before you order, check that your fitting takes an E14 cap and has room for a bulb 3.5cm in diameter. The cap on the bulb you are replacing usually settles the question quickly.

Which bulb holder does this candle bulb fit?
It has an E14 small screw cap, so it goes into any light with an E14 holder, a size common in wall lights, chandeliers and smaller pendants.
Can I use this bulb with a dimmer switch?
No, this bulb is not dimmable, so we recommend it for a fitting worked by an ordinary on and off switch rather than a dimmer.

No. It is rated IP20, which means it belongs indoors in dry rooms, so we would not use it outdoors or anywhere near water.
