LED candle bulb Philips CorePro E14 7W 4000K 806 lm B38 frosted (repl. 7–60W)

Philips CorePro LED candle bulb E14 7W 4000K delivers 806 lumens of neutral white light in a frosted B38 shape. Designed to replace 7–60W incandescent bulbs while using only 7 W, this lamp provides glare-reduced, uniform illumination for chandeliers, wall sconces, decorative fittings and other indoor fixtures with an E14 socket. The frosted finish softens the beam and helps produce a steady light output suitable for general-purpose lighting in homes, offices and hospitality environments.

Advantages

The lamp offers energy-efficient operation with a high luminous output relative to its power consumption, providing significant electricity savings compared with incandescent equivalents. Its neutral 4000K color temperature renders colours accurately without the warm bias of lower color temperatures, and the frosted B38 design minimizes direct glare while delivering even light distribution. The compact candle shape fits many decorative fittings where a standard bulb may be too large or visually intrusive.

Suitable for

• Chandeliers and multi-light decorative fittings with E14 sockets
• Wall sconces and bedside lamps where compact, non-glare bulbs are needed
• General indoor lighting in kitchens, corridors and living rooms
• Commercial spaces such as hotel rooms and reception areas requiring neutral white illumination

When it may not be suitable

This bulb is not suitable for fixtures that require dimming unless explicitly specified as dimmable on the fixture or packaging; using it in incompatible dimmer circuits may cause flicker or reduced lifetime. It may also be inappropriate where very warm (2700K) or very cool (>5000K) color tones are required for specific design effects or photographic needs.

Key specifications

• Light output: 806 lumens
• Power consumption: 7 W
• Color temperature: 4000 K (neutral white)
• Bulb shape and finish: B38 frosted candle
• Base type: E14 (small Edison screw)
• Intended replacement range: 7–60 W incandescent equivalent
• Suitable for indoor use in enclosed and open fixtures (check fixture recommendations)

How to use

Ensure the fixture is switched off and cool before installing the bulb. Screw the bulb into an E14 socket until snug; do not overtighten. Restore power and verify correct operation. For best life and performance, use the bulb in fixtures recommended for LED lamps and avoid prolonged operation in fully enclosed fixtures unless the product specification allows it. Replace bulbs one at a time to maintain consistent color and brightness across multi-lamp fittings.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm the fixture uses an E14 base and has adequate clearance for a B38 candle-shaped bulb.
• Check whether your lighting circuit requires dimmable bulbs; purchase a dimmable variant if needed.
• Decide whether neutral white 4000K matches your desired ambience; consider warmer or cooler options for different effects.
• Verify suitability for use in enclosed fixtures if your application requires it.

Usage recommendations

For uniform appearance in chandeliers or multi-lamp fittings, replace all bulbs at once with the same type and color temperature. Use in well-ventilated fixtures to maximise service life and avoid combining with incompatible dimmer controls unless the bulb is specified as dimmable.
