Description
A round golf ball LED on a small screw cap, this one runs cool white at 4000K rather than the warmer tone most household bulbs default to. The bulb is clear rather than opal, so you look straight through to the light source and the output is not softened on its way out. It draws 4W for 470 lumens, roughly in line with a small traditional lamp, and it dims down provided the dimmer already on the circuit is rated to handle LED loads.
We reach for a bulb like this where the lamp is on show: a clear glass shade, an open chandelier arm, a wall light with the holder in view, or a bedside lamp under a slim shade. The cooler white reads closer to daylight, which makes it a sensible choice in kitchens, utility rooms, home offices and reading corners, and less of one in a bedroom where you want the light to settle. If a fitting takes several lamps, we would change them all together, since one warmer bulb among cool ones shows up immediately.
A clear body on a small screw cap, in a compact size that sits inside a shade without filling it. Keep it clean by switching the light off, letting it cool and going over it with a dry cloth; damp cloths and cleaning sprays have no place near a lamp. Handle it by the cap rather than the body when you fit or remove it. It carries a three year warranty. We stock this one as a straight swap for older small-cap golf ball lamps, and it looks its best in fittings where the lamp is meant to be seen rather than hidden behind fabric.

Frequently Asked
How big is the bulb?
It measures 45mm across the widest part of the globe and 73mm in overall height, including the cap.
Which cap does it use?
It has an E14 small screw cap, the size used on most chandeliers, small wall lights and table lamps.
Will it dim on my existing dimmer?
It is dimmable, but it needs a dimmer suitable for LED loads. No dimmer is supplied with the bulb, so check what is already on the circuit before ordering.
How bright is it, and what does the light look like?
470 lumens from 4W, at 4000K cool white. Light is thrown right around the bulb rather than in one direction, so it suits open fittings and clear shades.
How long is it rated to last?
The rated average life is 15,000 hours, and it carries a three year warranty.
Can I mix it with warm white bulbs in the same fitting?
We would not. The difference between 4000K and a warm white shows clearly when both are lit side by side, so keep a multi-lamp fitting on one colour temperature.
