E14 Flame Bulb — The Chandelier Standard, Scaled for Multi-Arm Fittings
The E14 small Edison screw is the standard cap for chandeliers, candelabras, and decorative multi-arm wall lights — the fittings where the bulb is visible, the flame shape is part of the aesthetic, and consistency across all arms matters. In a 6-arm chandelier, six of these bulbs together produce approximately 1 494 lumens — comparable to a single 100W incandescent — while consuming just 18W in total. The C35 flame shape is the most widely used profile for this type of fitting: narrow enough to sit within the arm without touching the shade or bobeche, and proportioned to read as a candle flame from a distance. At 2700K, the output is deep amber-warm, which suits the decorative register of a chandelier or candelabra far better than a neutral or cool white. The 10 000-hour lifespan means you are unlikely to need to replace all arms simultaneously — but when you do, replacing like-for-like ensures a consistent appearance across the fitting.
This bulb also works in single E14 wall lights, bedside lamps, and small table lamps where the E14 cap is specified. In these applications, 249 lumens is adequate for ambient or accent lighting but not for reading or task use — if you need more output from an E14 fitting, look for a higher-wattage option.

Common Questions
What is the difference between E14 and E27?
+
E14 and E27 refer to the diameter of the screw cap in millimetres: E14 is 14mm (small Edison screw, also called SES) and E27 is 27mm (standard Edison screw, also called ES). They are not interchangeable — an E14 bulb will not fit an E27 socket and vice versa. E14 is the standard for chandeliers, candelabras, and smaller decorative fittings; E27 is the standard for most pendants, floor lamps, and table lamps. Check the socket size on your fitting before ordering.
How many of these bulbs do I need for a chandelier?
+
One per arm. A 6-arm chandelier requires 6 bulbs; a 12-arm chandelier requires 12. At 249 lm per bulb, a 6-arm chandelier produces approximately 1 494 lm in total — adequate for ambient lighting in a dining room or living room. For a larger space or a chandelier used as the primary light source, consider a higher-lumen E14 option or supplement with other light sources in the room.
Will the flame shape fit inside the bobeche or candle cup of my chandelier?
+
The C35 flame shape is 35mm at its widest point — the standard diameter for chandelier candle cups. Most bobeches and candle sleeves are designed to accommodate a C35 bulb. If your chandelier has unusually narrow candle cups or decorative sleeves that sit above the socket, measure the internal diameter before ordering to confirm the bulb will pass through. The flame tip should extend above the candle cup for the correct visual proportion.
Is 10 000 hours a short lifespan compared to other LED bulbs?
+
It is shorter than the 50 000-hour rating of some LED bulbs in this range, but still significantly longer than a standard incandescent (1 000–2 000 hours) or a compact fluorescent (6 000–8 000 hours). At 4 hours of daily use, 10 000 hours equates to approximately 6.8 years. For a chandelier used mainly in the evening, this is a practical lifespan. The lower rating reflects the compact form factor of the C35 flame shape, which limits the space available for heat dissipation.
Can I use E14 bulbs in a fitting that currently has E27 sockets?
+
Not directly — E14 and E27 caps are different sizes and are not interchangeable. However, E14-to-E27 adapters are available that allow an E14 bulb to be used in an E27 socket. These are inexpensive and widely available. Note that using an adapter changes the visual proportion of the bulb in the fitting, which may affect the aesthetic in a decorative chandelier or candelabra. For the correct look, always use the cap size specified for your fitting.
