LED bulb E14: definition, characteristics and advantages

A screw bulb

LED bulb E14 being part of LED bulbs, it owes its name mainly to the peculiarities of its cheek. THE a bulb is the metal device specially designed for the mechanical and electric contact from the lamp to your luminaire, while acting as a support. As a rule, the bulb pellet identifies with a three or five -character code. For the case of the cheek E14, the letter "E" refers to a screw fixing system. The "14" number of the cheek indicates for its part the outside diameter of the support, which is 14 mm, hence its name of small cheek to screw. Obviously, an E14 LED bulb or a bullet with a cheek installation is installed on an E14 threaded socket.

The E14 LED lamp has a long lifespan

The lifespan is One of the main advantages of an E14 LED lamp. Thanks to LED technology, it can easily reach up to 50,000 hours for several years of use, without losing performance. By way of comparison, the lifespan of an incandescent lamp is evaluated between 1,000 and 1,200 hours, against 2,000 to 3,000 hours for a halogen bulb, and between 6,000 and 15,000 hours for a flu -power lamp.

Achieve considerable energy savings thanks to the E14 LED bulb

Using an E14 LED lamp, you save significant savings on your electricity bill. Always thanks to Advantages of LED technology, your light source consumes between 50 and 80 % less energy than a halogen lamp, incandescent or traditional flu -power, even if your E14 lamp remains on for a fairly long duration. In addition, the E14 LED bulb remains insensitive to repetitive ignitions and extinctions.

A high light yield

THE operation of the LED 14 bulb Thanks to the semiconductor system allows a rather interesting light yield. This is a parameter that indicates the number of lumens obtained for a consumption of 1 watt. As an indication, an E14 LED bulb consuming only 6 watts provides a light yield of up to 600 lumens.

The E14 LED bulb: better light efficiency

Like the E27 LED bulb, the E14 LED bulb promises perfect lighting. It does not sparkle and has no variation in intensity, with the exception of the LED Dimmable bulb. Silumen offers E14 bulbs of various light intensities.

The different types of E14 LED lamps

The E14 Flame LED bulb

Also known as the LED Bougie lamp, theFlame bulb E14 is distinguished by its right design imitating the flame of a candle.

SMD LED

On an E14 SDM bulb or Device Mounting Surface, the mounting of small LEDs with a thickness less than 1 mm is done on PVC tubes. With this LED lamp, you benefit from a 360 ° lighting angle. Know all the same that SDM technology is none other than the second generation of electroluminescent diode offering a light yield of 80 LM/W as well as a lightly more diffuse light beam than that of the LED DIP.

LED bulbs with filament E14

THE E14 filament LED bulbs have the wind in its sails, since these are models rather appreciated for their decorative side. They present themselves with small LED chips which reproduce the lines of tungsten filaments. The visual rendering of the LED filament E14 bulb approaches that of traditional incandescent bulbs.

E14 connected bulb

The connected bulbs come to take a big place in our smart homes. Our online catalog invites you to buy Connected bulbs E14. THE E14 connected LED lamps Can be connected to the WiFi network, allowing you to control your light remotely: ignition, extinction or change of lighting shade.

How to choose your bulb E14?

Several criteria determine the Choice of an E14 LED bulb. Below is the essential points to remember to find the E14 lamps that will best meet your lighting needs.

The lighting color temperature of the E14 LED bulb

Expressed in Kelvin (K), the lighting color temperature Indicates the shade of white light provided by your LED LED lamp E14. Three shades of white are therefore possible. The warm white of 2,300 to 3,500 k creates a warm atmosphere. Cold white worth 6,000 to 8,000 k is rather suitable for spaces requiring pronounced and comfortable lighting. The neutral white of 4,000 to 5,500 k reproduces day light.

The power and light intensity of the E14 bulb

Expressed in watts, the power of your bulb E14 Indicates the electrical energy consumed. On the other hand, thelight intensity Expressed in lumens LED bulbs E14 refers to the amount of light emitted by the LED lamp. A high number of lumens therefore means that your bulb delivers a relatively intense light. This principle is valid for all LED bulbs. The number of lumens of the E14 LED bulbs varies depending on the space to be illuminated and the activities that you plan to carry out within the room. As an indication, 500 lumens are necessary to set up a warm and cocooning atmosphere with E14 LED lamps.

The lamp protection index E14

I'protection sign mainly depends on the location of your cheeky bulbs E14. Presenting with the IP letters followed by two figures, this criterion determines the resistance level of your light source to solid bodies such as dust and projections or penetrations of water. The higher these two figures, the more waterproof your e14 lamp. In general, E14 LED lamps equip the interior lights. An IP20 index is therefore more than enough. On the other hand, if you plan to use E14 LED bulbs in the bathroom or in the kitchen, especially near the water points, favor at least one IP44.

The lighting angle of the E14 LED lamp

Depending on the light atmosphere you want to establish in your space, you must take into account thelighting angle. Our E14 bulbs offer an angle of lighting ranging from 180 ° to 360 °. By choosing a 360 ° E14 LED bulb, you get homogeneous and diffuse lighting.
