Description
A candle-shaped LED lamp with a clear envelope, so the light comes through crisp and the shape of the lamp stays part of the fitting's look. It runs on 4W and gives 470 lumens, and the colour sits at 4000K: a clean neutral white with none of the yellow of an older candle bulb. The small Edison screw cap fits the fittings candle lamps usually live in, and light comes off it all round rather than in one direction. It is a straight swap for the incandescent candle bulbs still sitting in plenty of older chandeliers.
We would use it in a chandelier or a multi-arm ceiling light where several lamps are on show at once, in candle wall lights, and in small shaded pendants over a desk or a worktop. The neutral white suits kitchens, home offices, utility rooms and landings, anywhere you want the light to read accurate rather than cosy. It is slim enough to sit inside a clip-on shade without crowding it. It does not dim, so it belongs on a plain switched circuit; if there is a dimmer on the wall, this is not the lamp to put behind it.
The clear finish means the lamp is meant to be seen, which is why we keep it for open fittings rather than tucking it inside a heavy shade. Let it cool, then wipe it over with a dry cloth: dust settles visibly on a clear envelope and quietly takes the edge off the output. It carries a three year warranty. We sell it singly, so you can order the exact number a multi-arm fitting takes. It is one we reach for where the lamps are in plain view and a frosted finish would look wrong.

Frequently Asked
What size is this lamp?
It is a C35 candle shape, 35mm across the widest part of the envelope and 100mm tall, which is the standard size for chandelier and candle wall light shades.
How much light does it give?
470 lumens from 4W, with colour rendering above 80 for accurate colour on skin, food and fabric.
Can I use it with a dimmer?
No. This one is non-dimmable and should be run from a standard on/off switch. Fitting it to a dimmed circuit can cause flicker or buzz and will shorten its life.
Is 4000K warm or cool?
It is a neutral, slightly cool white, brighter and cleaner than the 2700K of a traditional bulb. If you want a soft yellow glow for a dining room, choose a warmer colour temperature instead.
What fitting does it need?
A small Edison screw, E14, cap. It will not fit an E27 or a bayonet holder without an adaptor.
How long is it rated for?
Around 25,000 hours of use, and it carries a three year warranty.
