Description
Small, candle shaped and clear, this is the sort of lamp meant to be seen as well as to light a room. It draws 4W and gives a crisp 6000K daylight white, a cool, blue leaning light that reads clean and bright rather than cosy. The clear glass keeps the outline sharp in open fittings. It dims, provided the dimmer is a suitable LED type, and no dimmer is supplied with it.
Daylight white is a working light, so we would put this where clarity counts: a kitchen, a utility room, a home office lamp, a landing where you want to see the stairs properly. The small screw E14 base is the usual fitting for chandeliers, candle style wall lights and little bedside lamps, and at 470 lumens each one carries its share in a multi lamp fitting without shouting. It suits anyone swapping out older candle lamps who wants the same familiar shape on a lower draw. If you want a softer, yellower light for living rooms and bedrooms, we keep warmer versions for that instead.
The glass envelope is clear rather than frosted or opal, and the base is the standard small screw type. It carries a three year warranty. Switch the power off and let it cool before dusting the glass with a dry cloth, and keep damp cloths and sprays away from the base. Because the light is thrown right around the lamp, it works as happily pointing down in a pendant as it does upright in a wall fitting. We would pick it up in pairs or fours, since fittings that take candle lamps rarely take just one.

Frequently Asked
How big is it?
It is a C35 candle shape, 35mm across at its widest and 100mm tall, so it fits the great majority of chandeliers and candle style fittings without fouling a shade.
Will it work on my dimmer?
It is dimmable, but it needs a dimmer rated for LED loads. Older dimmers built for filament lamps can cause flicker or buzz, and no dimmer is included.
How bright is 4W in practice?
It puts out 470 lumens, which is comparable to a small traditional candle lamp. In a fitting holding four or five of them, that is plenty for a dining table or hallway.
What does 6000K look like?
It is a daylight white, cool and slightly blue in character. It keeps colours and detail crisp, which is why it works well over worktops and desks rather than in a relaxing sitting room.
How long should it last?
It is rated at 15,000 hours of average life and carries a three year warranty.
