The 4 Watt Vintage Edison Spiral Dimmable Medium Tube LED Filament Bulb features an elegant tubular bulb design reminiscent of early 20th century bulbs but powered by cutting-edge LED Technology. The result: a modern light bulb evoking the nostalgia of Gilded Age incandescent lamps. This light bulb does well in hanging fixtures; chandeliers; and sconces. Add an old-time charm to any room without getting the energy wastage and safety risks of the old-time bulbs.
This Vintage bulb filament enhances the bulb's nostalgic carbon filament of the late Victorian era and the tungsten filaments of the early 20th-century while spreading a warm 360 degree glow. However; the filament is now the new Soft-LED Filament - gone are the odd-looking traditional LED filaments that resembled miniature Daleks; and even the more familiar straight yellow-orange filaments that just didn't have that old-timey charm.
At 4 watts; you get 170 lumens of yellow-orange light (2200 Kelvin; like tungsten filament bulb; but not as bright) - equivalent to a less than 25-watt tungsten incandescent bulb. Since they are designed to emulate the look and feel of early incandescent light bulbs (which did not give off a very bright light); they are already dim enough. This bulb is the standard Bayonet cap version (B22). This Vintage bulb comes with an average rated life of over 25;000 hours (input voltage 240 volts).
For historical recreations please note that old bulb filaments (especially the sintered tungsten models) were so fragile the bulbs were installed hanging or standing upright; seldom at an angle.
