Description
This is an opal LED golf ball bulb with a standard E27 screw cap, the larger screw fitting found on a great many table lamps, floor lamps and pendants. The rounded globe shape sits on a white neck above a silver cap, and the frosted opal finish spreads the light evenly so you see a soft glow rather than a bright point. It draws 4.9W and gives 470lm of light, and it runs on mains voltage, so it goes straight into the lampholder.
At 2700K it gives warm white light, the soft, golden tone most people want in a living room, a bedroom or a hallway in the evening. The golf ball shape is a favourite for small lampshades, wall lights with open shades, chandeliers and multi-arm pendants, where a longer household bulb could look bulky or poke out beneath the shade. Because the opal finish hides the LEDs inside, it looks tidy in any fitting where the bulb is on show. It is also an easy swap for anyone replacing an older golf ball bulb with the same cap.
The bulb carries an Energy Class F rating and draws a modest 4.9W, so it suits a lamp that stays lit through long evenings. We would suggest buying a few at a time so every bulb in a multi-arm fitting matches in shape and colour of light. Before you order, check that your lampholder takes an E27 cap and that the fitting's maximum wattage allows 4.9W, and you will have a warm, even glow whenever the lamp is lit.
