G E Lighting 49781 100W White Globe Bulb Medium Base

Product Description

The G E LIGHTING 49781 is a 100-watt white globe incandescent light bulb designed for decorative and general-purpose lighting applications. Rated at 1280 lumens, it delivers broad, even light distribution typical of globe-style bulbs. The frosted white finish diffuses glare, making it a practical choice for vanity strips, pendant fixtures, and exposed-bulb installations. It features a standard medium base and a rated service life of 2500 hours. Electricians and lighting contractors install this bulb in residential and light-commercial fixtures where a classic globe form factor is specified.

This bulb fits residential and commercial fixtures that accept a medium base globe lamp. The 5-inch diameter G40 globe profile suits open pendant lights, bathroom vanity bars, and decorative sconces where the bulb itself is visible as part of the fixture design. It is sold in a boxed package of 6 units, making it suitable for multi-fixture installations or stocking by maintenance and service crews.

Installation Notes

Installation requires no special tools beyond a dry hand or lint-free glove to avoid skin oils on the glass. Always confirm the fixture is de-energized and the existing bulb has cooled before replacement. Verify the fixture is rated for 100 watts before installing; exceeding the fixture wattage rating is a fire hazard. Follow applicable NEC guidelines for lamp replacement in wet or damp-rated locations.
