Troubleshooting

Bulb does not turn on

Ensure the bulb is securely screwed into the E27 socket. Check that the light fixture is receiving power by testing with another compatible bulb or by checking the circuit breaker. Verify the bulb is not faulty.

Flickering light

Ensure a stable connection at the E27 fitting. If the issue persists, the bulb may be nearing the end of its lifespan or there might be an issue with the power supply to the fixture. If used with a dimmer, ensure it is compatible and set correctly (though this bulb is not dimmable).

Light appears too dim

This bulb has a low luminous flux (40 lm) and is intended for decorative effect, not primary illumination. Consider using it in conjunction with other light sources or in smaller spaces where ambient light is sufficient.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides unique, decorative red ambient lighting.
  • Energy-efficient with low power consumption (1.3 W).
  • Long bulb lifetime of 15,000 hours.
  • Classic design fits many existing light fixtures.
  • Uniform light distribution for a consistent effect.

Cons

  • Low luminous flux (40 lm) is not suitable for primary illumination.
  • Color temperature (1000 K) is very warm and specific, not ideal for accurate color rendering.
  • Not dimmable, limiting lighting control.
  • Color Rendering Index (CRI) of 30 is low, meaning colors may appear distorted under this light.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This bulb features a standard E27 fitting, making it compatible with most luminaires designed for this base type. Simply screw the bulb into the E27 socket of your desired light fixture and switch on the power. Ensure the fixture is rated for the bulb's power consumption (1.3 W) and voltage (230 V).

Compatibility: Primarily designed for decorative and ambient lighting. Check that your light fixture has an E27 socket. The bulb is not dimmable, so ensure it is used in a fixture without a dimmer switch or that the dimmer is set to be compatible with non-dimmable bulbs.

Care: As with any light bulb, ensure the power is switched off at the mains before attempting to remove or install the bulb. Clean the bulb only when it is cool and switched off, using a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents.
