Description
This is an opal LED GLS bulb in the classic pear shape, with a standard E27 screw cap. It is 10.7cm long and 6cm across at its widest, the size and shape of the familiar household bulb, so it suits most lamps and pendants built round a standard E27 bulb. The opal plastic shell spreads the light evenly, giving a soft glow instead of a bright point. It puts out 470 lumens at a colour temperature of 4000K, a crisp cool white. Its rating is IP20, which settles where it belongs: indoors, in dry rooms.
A cool white like this suits the places where you want to see clearly: a kitchen, a study, a home office, a utility room or a desk lamp where you read and work. It runs from ordinary UK mains at 220 to 240 volts, so it goes straight into an E27 lampholder with no adaptor. Because the opal finish hides the LEDs, it looks tidy in an open pendant or a bare lampholder where the bulb itself is in view. It is a good spare to keep in a kitchen drawer for whichever cool white light needs a fresh bulb next.
The bulb is not dimmable, so fit it where an ordinary on and off switch controls the light, never on a dimmer circuit. It carries energy class D. It weighs 0.041KG packed, and its plastic shell is lighter than glass and less likely to break if it slips from your hand. To clean it, switch the light off, let the bulb cool and wipe it with a dry, soft cloth. Keep it for the rooms where clear, even light matters most.
