Description
This is a warm white LED globe bulb with an opal finish and a silver screw cap, made to fit any lamp or light fitting that takes an E27 cap. The opal globe gives a soft, milky look whether the bulb is lit or not, which is why we like it for fittings where the bulb is on show. It draws 7.2W and gives 1,521lm, a generous output for a single bulb, and it carries an A energy class, so it is a sensible choice for a light you leave running through the evening.
At 2700K the light is a warm white, the cosy tone most of us want in a living room, a dining room or a bedroom. Because the bulb is dimmable, one fitting can cover a bright light for reading or tidying and a low, gentle glow later at night. The globe shape suits open pendants, wall lights with exposed bulbs and table lamps without a shade, where an ordinary bulb would look plain. An opal finish spreads light evenly and takes the harsh edge off a bright source, so you see a smooth sphere of light rather than a glaring point.
Before you buy, check that your fitting takes an E27 cap, the large screw cap found on many lamps and pendants, and that there is room for a globe bulb of this shape. If you plan to dim it, pair it with a dimmer switch made for LED bulbs for the smoothest results. Clean the opal globe with a soft, dry cloth, only once the light has been switched off and has cooled. A dimmable, warm white globe like this one is an easy way to give a familiar lamp a softer, more considered look.
