Description
The XLED is a C35 candle LED bulb with the classic flame profile and a clear glass body that shows off its visible LED filaments for a vintage look. It fits an E14 cap, the Small Edison Screw known in the UK as SES, and draws just 1.8 W while producing 250 lumens of warm white light at 2700K. American buyers will know the E14 as the candelabra fitting, and the shape sits within the candle family rather than a standard rounded household lamp. A wide 320 degree beam spreads the light around the bulb rather than throwing it in one direction, so the glow reads evenly across the glass and through any open shade.
The candle shape and warm 2700K tone make this well suited to chandeliers, wall brackets, lounge and dining fittings, and decorative lamps where the bulb itself is on show. With a wide 320 degree spread the light fills the surrounding space softly rather than spotlighting a single point, which suits ambient and feature lighting more than focused task work. It is rated IP20 for dry indoor use only, so keep it to interior rooms and clear of bathrooms, porches and any damp or outdoor positions. At 1.8 W it stands in for an old 25 W incandescent candle bulb while using a fraction of the power.
Built around a transparent C35 glass envelope measuring 35 mm across and 123 mm long, the bulb weighs only 13 g and runs on 220 to 240 V AC mains with no separate driver. Light quality is held at Ra 80 colour rendering with an efficiency of 139 lm/W, and the rated life is 25,000 hours. This is a non-dimmable bulb, so pair it with a standard non-dimmed circuit. The XLED candle sits alongside other E14 filament shapes in the range for matched decorative fittings.

Frequently Asked
Which fitting does this bulb need?
It uses an E14 cap, the Small Edison Screw also called SES, which is the smaller screw fitting common on candle and decorative lamps. In the US this is the candelabra base. Check your fitting takes E14 rather than the larger E27 before ordering.
What old bulb wattage does it replace?
The XLED draws 1.8 W and produces 250 lumens, which stands in for a traditional 25 W incandescent candle bulb. The LED itself only uses 1.8 W, so it gives a similar warm output for a fraction of the energy.
Is this bulb dimmable?
No, this is a non-dimmable bulb, so it should be used on a standard switched circuit rather than a dimmer. Fitting it to a dimmer may cause flicker or shorten its life.
What does the warm white 2700K colour look like?
At 2700K the light is a warm, slightly amber white that suits living and dining rooms, chandeliers and decorative fittings. With the clear glass and visible filaments it gives a soft vintage glow rather than a bright cool light, and colour rendering is held at Ra 80.
