G E Lighting 28280 G16 Led Bulb 3.5W 2 Pack Soft White

Product Description

The G E LIGHTING 28280 is a 2-pack of G16 globe-shaped decorative LED light bulbs designed for candelabra-base fixtures. Each bulb draws 3.5 watts and delivers 250 lumens of soft white light at 2,700 Kelvin, making it a direct replacement for 25-watt incandescent bulbs in the same base. The frosted finish diffuses light evenly, and both bulbs are fully dimmable for use with compatible dimmer switches. With a rated life of 15,000 hours and a 13-year rated lifespan, these bulbs suit applications where frequent relamping is inconvenient. Licensed electricians or qualified maintenance personnel typically handle fixture upgrades in commercial settings.

The G16 globe form factor and candelabra (E12) base make these bulbs a common fit for decorative chandeliers, sconces, vanity strips, and ceiling fan light kits in residential and light commercial environments. The soft white, 2,700 Kelvin output blends well with warm interior lighting schemes. The frosted bulb finish is preferred in open fixtures where a bare lamp is visible, reducing glare and hot spots. Each package contains two individual bulbs.

Installation Notes

De-energize the fixture at the breaker or switch before replacing bulbs. Verify the socket is rated for an E12 candelabra base before installation. If used on a dimmer circuit, confirm the dimmer is rated for LED loads to avoid flickering or reduced bulb life. Allow the fixture to cool fully if replacing a previously lit incandescent bulb before handling.
