Not sure which LED bulb to choose?
Let our LED Bulb Advisor help you find the perfect replacement — based on brightness (lumens), colour, and fitting — not guesswork.
💡 Understand Your Lighting Needs
Old bulbs were sold by watts (energy use).
LEDs are chosen by lumens (brightness) — here’s how to match them:
| Old Bulb (Incandescent) | Brightness (Lumens) | Typical LED Wattage |
|---|---|---|
| 40W | ~450 lm | 4–6W |
| 60W | ~800 lm | 7–9W |
| 75W | ~1100 lm | 10–12W |
| 100W | ~1600 lm | 14–16W |
🔍 Tip: Look for the lumens (lm) on your old bulb or packaging — that’s your target brightness!
🎨 Choose Your Light Colour
- Warm White (2700K–3000K) – Cozy, yellowish glow like traditional bulbs. Ideal for living rooms & bedrooms.
- Cool White (4000K) – Clean, neutral light. Great for kitchens, bathrooms, and workspaces.
- Daylight (5000K–6500K) – Bright, crisp white. Best for reading lamps, garages, or task lighting.
🔌 How to Identify Your Bulb Fitting
The fitting is the metal base that connects to your lamp. Here’s how to recognise common UK types:
• Two pins on the side
• Push in and twist to lock
• Common in UK ceiling lights
• Large threaded base
• Screw in clockwise
• Used in lamps & pendants
• Two thick pins
• Push and twist (like B22)
• Common in spotlights
