FAQs
What is the color temperature of this bulb?
This bulb provides a soft warm white color, creating a cozy ambiance. The amber glass finish further enhances this warm tone.
Is this bulb dimmable?
The product information does not specify if this bulb is dimmable. For optimal performance and to avoid potential issues like flickering or premature failure, it is best to use it with a standard on/off light switch unless otherwise stated on the packaging.
What is the lifespan of this LED bulb?
LED bulbs are known for their longevity. While specific hours are not provided, LED technology typically offers a significantly longer lifespan than traditional incandescent or halogen bulbs.
Can this bulb be used outdoors?
This bulb is intended for indoor use. It is not rated for outdoor environments and should only be used in suitable indoor light fittings.
What does 'B22' mean?
B22 refers to the cap type of the bulb. It is a bayonet cap fitting, commonly found in the UK and some other regions, characterized by two pins that twist into a socket.
How does the wide beam angle affect lighting?
A 330° beam angle means the light disperses in almost all directions from the bulb. This provides broad, directional illumination, ideal for highlighting an area or object, but might require multiple bulbs for general room lighting.
Troubleshooting
Bulb does not light up
Ensure the light switch is on and the bulb is correctly screwed into the B22 socket. Check if the power supply to the fixture is active. Try the bulb in a different known working B22 fitting to rule out a bulb fault.
Flickering light
Check that the bulb is securely seated in the socket. If flickering persists, it might indicate an issue with the light fitting or dimmer switch compatibility. Consult an electrician if using a dimmer.
Color appears different than expected
Ambient light conditions can affect perceived color. Test the bulb in different lighting conditions or alongside other bulbs to assess its true color output. Ensure the bulb is not exposed to direct sunlight which can alter perceived warmth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Ensure the light fitting is switched off at the mains before attempting to install the bulb. Screw the bulb gently into the B22 socket until it is secure. Once installed, switch the mains back on and then the light switch to test the bulb.
Compatibility: This bulb features a B22 (bayonet) cap and is designed for use in compatible B22 light fittings. It is not suitable for E27 (screw) or other cap types. Always check your existing light fitting to confirm it accepts a B22 bulb.
Care: This is an LED bulb and requires minimal care. To clean, switch off the light at the mains and allow the bulb to cool completely. Wipe gently with a dry or slightly damp soft cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the glass finish.
