Description
Clear-finished and gently tapered to a point, this is an LED lamp made to be looked at rather than hidden away. The E27 screw cap fits the majority of larger domestic lampholders, and the warm white output at 2700K sits on the cosy side of white, close to the colour most people remember from tungsten. Drawing 6.5W for 806 lumens, it covers general duty in a table lamp, a hall pendant or a multi-arm fitting. It does dim, but a dimmer rated for LED loads is needed for a smooth result, and no dimmer comes with it.
We reach for this one where the fitting leaves the lamp on show: open shades, clear glass lanterns, a bare flex pendant over a stairwell, or a run above a kitchen counter. The upright rustic shape reads well in older rooms without looking fussy, and light comes off it all round rather than being thrown forward, so it suits fittings where an even glow matters more than direction. It is a straightforward swap for an old incandescent of the same cap where the running cost had begun to grate, and the warm tone means the room will not suddenly look colder for the change.
Because the finish is clear, the inside of the lamp stays on view, so it pays to keep it clean: switch off at the wall, let it cool, then dust it with a dry lint-free cloth and keep moisture away from the cap. Hold it by the cap when fitting or taking it out, rather than by the body. It carries a three year warranty. Put it on a compatible dimmer and it will sit low through an evening, which is how we would use it over a dining table. Clear is the finish we stock here.

Frequently Asked
What size is this lamp?
It measures 106mm tall, the traditional tapered-tip squirrel cage shape known as ST64.
How bright is it, and what does it replace?
It gives 806 lumens from 6.5W, which is the sort of output people expect from a mid-range general-purpose lamp.
Will it work on my existing dimmer?
It is dimmable, but the dimmer must be a type rated for LED loads. Older resistive dimmers made for filament lamps can cause flicker or buzz. No dimmer is supplied.
What colour is the light?
Warm white at 2700K, a soft yellow-toned light rather than a crisp or bluish one.
How long should it last?
It is rated at 15,000 hours of average life and carries a three year warranty.
Does the light spread in all directions?
Yes, output is all round rather than directional, so it works in shades and lanterns that need an even glow.
