Description
This is a globe-shaped LED bulb with an opal finish, the rounded form many people call a golf ball bulb. It has an E27 screw cap, the large screw cap found on a great many table lamps, floor lamps and ceiling pendants. It runs on mains voltage, draws just 2.8W and gives a warm white light at 2700K, the cosy tone most of us want at home in the evening. Mains voltage means it needs no separate transformer or driver; it goes straight into the lamp holder.
The neat round shape suits fittings where the bulb stays on view, such as a bedside lamp, a wall light or a pendant with an open shade. The opal finish softens the light and hides the LEDs, so you see an even glow rather than bright points. Warm white at 2700K is the colour we reach for in living rooms, bedrooms and hallways, where a cooler white can feel stark after dark. With so modest a draw, it is a sensible choice for a lamp that stays lit through long evenings.
The bulb pairs a frosted opal dome with a white body and a silver-coloured metal screw cap. It carries an energy class of F. To clean it, turn off the lamp, let the bulb cool and wipe the dome with a soft, dry cloth. Before you order, check that your lamp takes an E27 screw cap rather than a bayonet cap or a smaller screw cap.
