FAQs

What is DimTone technology?

DimTone technology means the bulb's color temperature shifts as it dims. It starts at a warmer 2700K and gets progressively warmer, down to 2200K, as you reduce the brightness, creating a cozy atmosphere.

Is this bulb suitable for enclosed fixtures?

While the bulb has a maximum case temperature of 70°C, it's generally recommended for open or semi-enclosed fixtures for optimal performance and longevity. Ensure adequate ventilation if used in enclosed spaces.

What is the equivalent wattage of this LED bulb?

This 3.4W LED bulb provides a light output comparable to a traditional 40W incandescent bulb.

How long will this bulb last?

The bulb has a rated lifespan of approximately 25,000 hours, which significantly reduces the need for frequent replacements.

Can I use any dimmer switch with this bulb?

No, it requires a dimmer switch specifically designed and compatible with LED technology. Using an incompatible dimmer may cause issues like flickering or buzzing.

What is the energy efficiency class of this bulb?

This bulb has an energy efficiency class of D, rated on a scale from A to G.

Does the color temperature remain constant when dimming?

No, unlike standard LEDs, this bulb features DimTone technology, meaning the color temperature changes from 2700K to 2200K as it dims.

Troubleshooting

Bulb does not turn on

Ensure the fixture is powered on and the bulb is securely screwed into the E14 socket. Check if the dimmer switch is in the 'on' position. Test with another known working bulb in the same fixture.

Bulb flickers or buzzes

This is often due to dimmer incompatibility. Ensure you are using a dimmer specifically rated for LED loads and that it is on the Philips recommended compatibility list. Try a different compatible LED dimmer.

Bulb does not dim or dims poorly

Verify that the dimmer switch is compatible with LED bulbs and specifically with this 'DimTone' technology. Ensure the minimum dimming level is not set too low for the bulb. Check that the bulb is correctly installed.

Light color is not as expected

The color temperature changes as the bulb dims due to DimTone technology. Ensure you are observing the color at the desired brightness level. If the color is consistently incorrect at all levels, check dimmer compatibility.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility:

  • Fitting: Requires an E14 (small Edison screw) base.
  • Voltage: Compatible with standard 220-240V AC input.
