Description
The XLEDEX is a candle-shaped C35 LED bulb on an E14 Small Edison Screw cap, known in the US as a candelabra fitting where the local equivalent is the E12 size. It draws just 3.8 watts yet produces 806 lumens, standing in for a 60 watt old incandescent candle bulb while using a fraction of the power. The light is a 4000K cool white with a CRI of Ra 80, and the wide 320 degree beam spreads the output evenly around the bulb rather than throwing it in one direction. Visible LED filaments behind the clear glass give it the vintage filament look people fit for the glow itself.
This bulb suits open chandeliers, candelabras, wall brackets and pendants where the lamp is on show and the clear glass and filament detail are part of the fitting. The 320 degree spread makes it well placed for fittings with several arms, casting light around a hallway, dining area or living room rather than down in a tight cone. Its slim Ø35 by 97 mm body fits the narrow holders common to candle fittings, and the cool white tone reads crisp and clean rather than yellow. Because the spread is so wide, think of it as filling the space around the fitting rather than lighting a defined task area.
The cap is a standard E14 SES that twists into any matching candle holder, and the bulb runs on 220 to 240V AC mains with no transformer needed. It is rated for 50,000 hours and reaches 212 lm/W, so it is efficient as well as long lived. The bulb is non-dimmable, so pair it with a plain on/off circuit rather than a dimmer. The clear transparent finish keeps the filaments fully visible, and it is rated IP20 for dry indoor use only. The XLEDEX sits within a wider range of E14 and E27 filament shapes for matching multiple fittings.

Frequently Asked
What fitting does this bulb need?
It has an E14 cap, also called Small Edison Screw or SES. It twists into any standard E14 candle holder. In the US this is the candelabra size, though the American standard is the slightly smaller E12.
What wattage bulb does it replace?
The LED itself draws only 3.8 watts but gives 806 lumens, which matches the output of a 60 watt old incandescent candle bulb. You get the same brightness while using far less energy. It is rated for 50,000 hours of use.
Is this bulb dimmable?
No, this is a non-dimmable bulb. Use it on a standard on/off circuit rather than a dimmer switch, as fitting it to a dimmer can cause flicker or buzzing. If you need dimming, choose a lamp marked as dimmable instead.
Is the light warm or cool?
It is a 4000K cool white, which reads as a crisp, clean tone rather than the yellower glow of warm white. The CRI of Ra 80 gives natural colour rendering. The clear glass shows the LED filaments for a vintage look despite the cool tone.
