Product Information
Full details
This Eveready 25W SES Opal Golf Bulb multipack is designed for users needing compact, soft illumination for smaller light fittings. The key benefit is the convenient pack of 10 bulbs providing good value and ensuring spares are always on hand. A potential caveat is that the 25W power is best suited for accent or ambient lighting rather than primary task lighting in larger spaces. This product offers a rounded, opal-finished bulb with an SES cap, ideal for lamps and standard smaller fixtures, prioritizing a softer light appearance.

FAQs
What type of cap fitting does this bulb have?
This bulb has an SES (Small Edison Screw) cap fitting, also known as E14.
What is the main advantage of the opal finish?
The opal finish diffuses the light, creating a softer, less harsh illumination compared to clear glass bulbs, which helps reduce glare and makes the light more comfortable for ambient settings.
How many bulbs are included in this pack?
This pack contains 10 Eveready 25W SES Opal Golf Light Bulbs.
Can I use these bulbs in outdoor fixtures?
These bulbs are generally intended for indoor use. Use in outdoor fixtures is not recommended unless the fixture is specifically designed to protect incandescent bulbs from moisture and the elements.
Are these LED bulbs?
No, these are traditional incandescent golf bulbs, not LED technology.
What is the expected lifespan of these bulbs?
Incandescent bulbs typically have a shorter lifespan than LED bulbs. While specific hours vary, expect a lifespan of around 1,000 hours for standard incandescent bulbs.
Troubleshooting
Bulb does not light up
Ensure the light switch is on and the power supply is active. Check that the bulb is screwed in securely and the SES fitting in the lamp is clean and undamaged. Try the bulb in another known working lamp to rule out fixture issues.
Flickering light
A loose bulb connection can cause flickering. Ensure the bulb is firmly seated in the socket. If flickering persists, the bulb may be nearing the end of its lifespan or there might be an issue with the light fitting's wiring.
Bulb breaks during installation
If a bulb breaks, switch off the power immediately. Carefully remove the remaining base of the bulb from the socket using pliers (wear protective gloves and eyewear). Dispose of the broken glass safely.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Provides a softer, diffused light due to the opal finish.
- Compact size is ideal for smaller lamps and fixtures.
- Convenient multipack of 10 bulbs offers good value.
- Standard SES cap ensures wide compatibility with many common fittings.
- Practical for everyday use in accent or ambient lighting scenarios.
Cons
- 25W is not suitable for primary task lighting in large rooms.
- Opal finish may slightly reduce overall light output compared to clear bulbs.
- These are incandescent bulbs, not LED, so they consume more energy and have a shorter lifespan.
- May not be compatible with specialized fittings requiring different cap types.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: To install, ensure the light fixture is switched off at the mains. Gently screw the bulb into the SES (Small Edison Screw) socket until it is snug. Do not overtighten.
Compatibility: These bulbs are designed for fixtures with an SES (E14) cap fitting. Please check your light fitting to ensure it uses this specific type of screw cap. The 25W rating is suitable for fixtures designed for incandescent bulbs of similar wattage.
Care: To clean the bulbs, switch off the light and allow the bulb to cool completely. Wipe gently with a dry or slightly damp soft cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or liquids, as this can damage the opal finish or the bulb itself. Always ensure bulbs are cool before handling.
