G E Lighting 42183 Led Vintage G30 Globe Bulb 5.5W 2200K

Product Description

The G E LIGHTING 42183 is a 5.5-watt LED vintage-style G30 globe bulb designed to replicate the warm, amber glow of classic incandescent lamps while delivering the energy efficiency of modern LED technology. It produces 400 lumens at a color temperature of 2,200 Kelvin and carries a CRI of 80, making it well suited for decorative and accent lighting applications. The straight filament design is fully visible through the amber all-glass globe, preserving the vintage aesthetic. At 5.5 watts, it delivers light output equivalent to a 60-watt incandescent. The bulb is dimmable and fits a standard medium base. Rated for 15,000 hours of service life, it is appropriate for residential and light commercial installations handled by licensed electricians or qualified lighting contractors.

The 42183 is intended for open or enclosed decorative fixtures, pendant lights, vanity bars, and exposed-bulb chandelier applications where vintage filament aesthetics are specified. Its G30 globe shape and amber glass envelope make it a common choice for hospitality, residential bathroom, and accent lighting retrofits. The bulb ships in a package quantity of four units. Its overall length of 4.40 inches should be confirmed against fixture clearance requirements before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician or qualified technician in accordance with applicable NEC requirements. Always switch off and lock out the circuit at the breaker before relamping. Confirm fixture and dimmer ratings are compatible with LED loads before installing, as some older incandescent-only dimmers may cause flicker or reduced dimming range with LED sources. Verify fixture clearance accommodates the 4.40-inch overall bulb length before final installation.
