This UniBulb LED uses a standard B22 (BC) bayonet cap fitting.
Each bulb uses only 4.2W, which is significantly less than a traditional 40W incandescent bulb it replaces, offering substantial energy savings.
These LED bulbs have a rated lifespan of up to 25,000 hours, meaning they last much longer than standard incandescent bulbs.
The bulbs produce a 2700K warm white light, which is a soft, cozy, and inviting color temperature.
These bulbs are designed for indoor use. For outdoor fixtures, ensure the fitting provides adequate protection from the elements and is suitable for LED bulbs.
The product description does not specify dimmability. Generally, standard LED bulbs like these are not dimmable unless explicitly stated. Using them with a dimmer switch may cause flickering or damage.
'E rated' refers to the energy efficiency class on a scale typically from A to G (where A is most efficient). An E rating indicates a moderate level of energy efficiency within the current European/UK standards.
Ensure the bulb is correctly seated in the B22 fitting. Check that the light switch is in the 'ON' position and that the power supply to the fixture is active. Try the bulb in a different known working fitting to rule out a faulty bulb.
Check that the bulb is screwed in securely. Some older dimmer switches may not be compatible with LED bulbs, causing flickering; ensure the fixture is not connected to a dimmer switch or use a compatible LED dimmer if available.
LEDs maintain their brightness well over their lifespan. If significant dimming occurs, ensure the bulb is not overheating due to poor ventilation in the fitting. Consider replacing the bulb if it is near the end of its rated lifespan.
