G E Lighting 36486 Led Vintage Candelabra Bulb 3W

Product Description

The G E LIGHTING 36486 is a 3-watt LED vintage-style candelabra bulb designed for decorative lighting applications in residential and light commercial settings. It produces 125 lumens at a 2200 Kelvin color temperature, delivering a warm amber glow that closely mimics the look of traditional incandescent filament lamps. The clear glass envelope exposes a spiral filament LED array, making it suitable for open or exposed-socket fixtures where the bulb itself is part of the visual aesthetic. Rated for 15,000 hours of service life, this bulb is an energy-efficient drop-in replacement for 25-watt incandescent candelabra lamps. It is fully dimmable and ships in a package of four units.

This bulb is intended for use in candelabra-base fixtures including chandeliers, wall sconces, pendant lights, ceiling fans with light kits, and decorative table lamps. The candle silhouette and all-glass construction make it well-suited to fixtures with visible or exposed sockets where lamp shape and appearance matter. The vintage aesthetic suits both residential dining areas and hospitality or commercial accent lighting where warm ambiance is the design goal. Licensed electricians and general contractors routinely specify this lamp type during fixture installation or retrofit projects.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician or in accordance with local electrical codes. Always de-energize the fixture at the circuit breaker before replacing any lamp. Confirm the fixture is rated for LED lamps and that any installed dimmer switch is compatible with LED loads, as legacy incandescent dimmers may cause flickering or reduced dimming range with LED sources. Do not exceed the maximum wattage rating of the fixture socket.
