Troubleshooting
Lamp does not turn on
Verify that the power is on and the lamp is correctly screwed into the E14 socket. Check if the light fixture is functioning by testing with another bulb. Ensure your dimmer switch (if used) is compatible and set correctly.
Flickering or inconsistent light
This can sometimes occur with incompatible dimmer switches. Try adjusting the dimmer setting or testing with a different compatible dimmer. Ensure the lamp is securely seated in the socket.
Reduced brightness or premature failure
Ensure the lamp is not being used in an environment that exceeds its operating temperature specifications. Check for loose connections in the fixture. While designed for 15,000 hours, ensure it's not subjected to excessive vibrations or physical shocks, particularly in open mountings.
