Description
This opal LED globe bulb gives a warm white glow through a rounded shade of glass in a smooth opal finish, so you see an even, milky light rather than the LEDs inside. It is 12cm long and 8cm across and screws into any standard E27 lampholder. It draws 7W and puts out 806lm at a colour temperature of 2700K, a warm white that suits relaxed rooms in the evening. Its IP20 rating settles where it belongs: indoors, in dry rooms, and never in a bathroom or outdoors.
Because the glass is opal rather than clear, this globe looks tidy left bare, so it is a good choice for open pendants, wall lights and lamp holders where the bulb is on show. It brings a soft, even light to a living room, bedroom, hallway or dining room, and the warm 2700K tone gives a cosy feel after dark. It fits any light that takes an E27 cap, but a globe is fuller than an everyday bulb, so check that the shade or holder has room for a bulb 12cm long and 8cm across. Fitting the same bulb in every pendant over a dining table or kitchen island gives the whole run one matching colour and glow.
It runs on mains power at 220-240V, 50/60Hz, and carries an energy class of D. It is not dimmable, so use it in a light controlled by an ordinary switch rather than a dimmer. Packed, it weighs just 0.068KG. For care, switch the light off and let the glass cool, then wipe the globe with a soft, dry cloth to keep the opal finish clean and the glow even. It is worth keeping a spare in the drawer, so a blown bulb is replaced in moments.
