Description
The XLED is an E14 filament candle bulb that draws 4.5 W while giving the bright output of an old 40 W bulb. It produces 470 lumens at 4000K cool white, a clean, slightly crisp tone that suits open living spaces. American buyers know the E14 fitting as a candelabra base, though this is the European Small Edison Screw (SES) standard. Visible LED filaments sit inside clear glass in the traditional C35 flame shape, with a wide 320 degree beam that spreads light evenly around the bulb rather than firing it in one direction.
The classic candle form makes this XLED a natural fit for chandeliers, wall brackets, pendant clusters and lantern fittings in hallways, dining rooms and living rooms. The wide 320 degree beam and visible filaments mean it works well where the bulb is on show through clear or open shades, with the cool white tone keeping the light fresh rather than yellow. Coverage is decorative and directional in feel rather than flat room wash, so it sits best in multi-bulb fittings where several lamps share the load. With an IP20 rating it is for dry indoor use only and should be kept clear of bathrooms, porches and any outdoor or damp location.
Built around a C35 candle envelope in transparent clear glass, the XLED measures just 35 mm across and 97 mm long and weighs only 16 g. It runs on 220 to 240 V AC mains through the E14 SES cap, with a colour rendering of Ra 80 and an efficiency of 104 lm/W. This bulb is non-dimmable, so pair it with a standard on/off switch rather than a dimmer circuit. Rated for 15,000 hours, it is a long-life replacement for an existing 40 W candle lamp.

Frequently Asked
Which fitting does this bulb need?
It uses an E14 Small Edison Screw (SES) cap, the smaller screw fitting common on chandeliers, wall lights and candle-style fittings. In the US this size is known as a candelabra base. Check that your fitting takes E14 rather than the larger E27.
What old bulb wattage does it replace?
The XLED draws only 4.5 W of power yet delivers 470 lumens, matching the brightness of a 40 W incandescent candle bulb. The 4.5 W figure is the actual running draw, so it uses far less energy for the same light output.
Is this bulb dimmable?
No, this is a non-dimmable bulb and should be used on a standard on/off switch. Fitting it to a dimmer circuit can cause flicker or buzzing and may shorten its life. If you need dimming, choose a lamp specified as dimmable.
Can I use it outdoors or in a bathroom?
No, it carries an IP20 rating and is for dry indoor use only. Keep it clear of bathrooms, porches, garages and any damp or outdoor location. For those areas you would need a fitting and lamp rated for moisture.
