LED bulb Philips 2.3 W E14 Warm white 485 lm 300° CRI 80 50,000 h

Philips LED bulb 2.3 W with an E14 fitting provides warm white light at 485 lumens and is intended as an energy-efficient replacement for traditional small incandescent lamps. The bulb emits light across a wide 300° beam angle and has a rated color rendering index (CRI) of 80. With a long rated service life, this lamp is designed for general household lighting in fixtures where a candle-style E14 bulb is required.

Advantages

This E14 LED bulb delivers high luminous efficacy by producing 485 lm from 2.3 W, offering substantial energy savings compared with an approximately 40 W incandescent equivalent. The warm white output is suitable for living areas and decorative fittings, while the wide 300° beam angle provides broad, even illumination. A long rated lifetime reduces the need for frequent replacements.

Suitable for

When it may not be suitable

This bulb has a CRI of 80, which is adequate for general household use but may not render colors as accurately as higher-CRI light sources needed for color-critical tasks such as professional photography, art appraisal or detailed color work. The beam and form factor suit fixtures sized for candle-type bulbs; it may not be appropriate where a very narrow spotlight or high-intensity directional beam is required.

Key specifications

How to use

Install the bulb by ensuring the power is switched off, screwing the E14 base into the compatible socket until secure, and restoring power. Use in standard household fixtures compatible with E14 candle bulbs such as chandeliers, small lamps and decorative fittings. Avoid use in totally enclosed luminaires unless the fixture manufacturer permits LED bulbs; excessive heat buildup can reduce lifetime. Do not attempt to open or modify the bulb.

What to consider before purchase

Recommendations

For typical household applications, replace an incandescent 40 W candle bulb with this Philips 2.3 W E14 LED to reduce energy use while maintaining warm, even illumination. Use in open or ventilated fixtures to support the rated lifetime and ensure consistent light output.
