Product Information

Full details

The Crompton Lamps 15W Colourglazed golfball bulb is designed for users seeking vibrant, decorative illumination for events, parties, and festoon lighting arrangements. It offers a rich yellow glow with the classic aesthetic of incandescent technology and is built to be vibration-resistant. A key caveat is that while the bulb carries an IP65 rating for water resistance, the entire lighting assembly must use IP65-rated sockets to ensure safety in outdoor weather conditions.

The bulb uses a standard B22d bayonet cap.

Will the yellow colour fade over time?

The bulb features a durable colour-glazed finish designed to withstand regular use and retain its colour.

How much power does it consume?

This is a 15W bulb.

Check that the bulb is fully twisted into the bayonet pins and that power is reaching the fixture.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-vibration resistance for reliable performance in outdoor settings
  • IP65 rating ensures weather durability
  • Dimmable to allow for adjustable lighting moods
  • Classic golfball size is versatile for various lamp shades and festoon kits

Cons

  • Incandescent technology consumes more energy than modern LED alternatives
  • Requires an IP65-rated socket to maintain the safety rating outdoors
  • Generates more heat than LED equivalents during operation

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation follows the standard bayonet (B22d) process: gently push the bulb into the socket and twist clockwise until it locks into place.

  • Compatibility: Ensure your fixture supports 15W bulbs. The B22d cap is universal in the UK for standard household lighting.
  • Outdoor Safety: Always check your light string or fixture housing. If you intend to use this outdoors, the socket itself must be IP65-rated to protect the connection point from moisture.
  • Handling: Allow the bulb to cool completely before attempting to remove or replace it, as incandescent bulbs reach high temperatures during use.
  • Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the surface if dust accumulates. Do not use chemical cleaners, as these can strip the colour-glazed finish.
