G E Lighting 31696 Led G25 Globe Bulb 5.5W 2700K 2 Pack

Product Description

The G E LIGHTING 31696 is a 5.5-watt LED G25 globe bulb sold in a 2-pack, designed as a direct replacement for 60-watt incandescent bulbs. It operates at 2700K color temperature, producing a soft white light with a CRI of 90 for high-definition color rendering. The all-glass G25 shape fits standard medium-base fixtures and supports full dimming when paired with a compatible dimmer switch. This bulb is Energy Star approved and rated for 15,000 hours of service life, making it a practical choice for residential lighting upgrades installed by electricians or knowledgeable homeowners.

The 31696 is suited for residential globe-style fixtures including vanity bars, bathroom mirrors, pendant lights, and decorative fixtures that accept a medium base. The G25 form factor is commonly specified in bathroom and dressing area applications where accurate color rendering matters. With 500 lumens of output and a dimmable driver, it performs in both full-brightness and low-light settings. The 2-pack format is practical for multi-fixture installations such as vanity strips requiring matched bulbs.

Installation Notes

Shut off the fixture at the wall switch before replacing the bulb. Confirm the existing dimmer switch is rated for LED loads — TRIAC dimmers designed for incandescent bulbs may cause flicker or reduced dimming range with LED replacements. The G25 globe shape and all-glass construction require careful handling; avoid touching the glass surface with bare hands during installation. No special tools are required for a standard medium-base screw-in installation.
