Description
A round globe lamp with a clear finish, 80mm across, and an E27 screw cap. Nothing sits behind opal here, so it suits fittings where the lamp itself is part of the look rather than something to tuck away. Colour is warm white at 2700K, the gentle, slightly golden end of white, and it draws only 6.5W. It dims, provided the circuit has a dimmer made for LED loads; a dimmer is not supplied with it.
We reach for a clear globe in open pendants, in bare flex drops over a kitchen island, and in cluster fittings where several lamps hang at staggered heights. It works equally well in table lamps and wall lights with open shades, and in a hallway pendant seen from below. Because the light comes off the whole ball rather than a single face, open shades fill evenly instead of showing a bright core. It suits anyone who likes a lamp on show but wants the low running cost of LED, and the dimming gives you a bright kitchen in the morning and something much quieter late in the evening.
The clear finish keeps the outline sharp against a dark shade or an exposed flex, and it will show dust sooner than an opal lamp would. When it has cooled, lift it out and wipe it with a dry lint-free cloth, keeping anything damp away from the cap. It is meant for ordinary household fittings in dry rooms indoors. It carries a three year warranty. If you are lighting several fittings at once, we would buy them together so the warm white matches across the room, which matters more with a clear lamp than most people expect.

Frequently Asked
How much light does it give?
806 lumens at 6.5W, in warm white at 2700K. Light is thrown all round the globe rather than in one direction, so it fills a shade or an open pendant evenly.
Will it dim on my existing dimmer?
It is dimmable, but it needs a dimmer designed for LED loads. Older dimmers made for filament lamps can flicker or buzz. No dimmer is included with the lamp.
What size is it?
80mm in diameter and 111mm in overall height, including the E27 cap. Worth checking against a small shade before ordering, as a globe needs a little breathing room.
How long is it rated to last?
15,000 hours of rated average life, and it carries a three year warranty.
Which fittings will take it?
Anything with an E27 large screw socket, which covers most pendants, standard lamps and larger table lamps sold in the UK.
Is 2700K the warm, cosy colour?
Yes. 2700K is the warm white end of the scale, close to the colour people associate with older household lamps, and comfortable for living rooms and bedrooms.
