Product Information
Full details
The Philips MASTERValue 5.9W LED G95 Globe Light Bulb is designed for homeowners seeking to enhance their living spaces with elegant, energy-efficient lighting. Its key benefit is providing the brightness and aesthetic of a 60W incandescent bulb while consuming only 5.9W, significantly reducing energy costs and lasting up to 15,000 hours. A potential caveat is that it's only dimmable with specific dimmer types and requires a 220-240V power supply.

FAQs
What is the power consumption of this bulb?
This Philips MASTERValue LED bulb consumes only 5.9 watts.
How does DimTone technology work?
DimTone technology allows the color temperature of the light to change as you dim it. As you decrease the brightness, the light becomes warmer, shifting from 2700K to 2200K, similar to how traditional incandescent bulbs behave.
Is this bulb suitable for all types of light fixtures?
It is suitable for fixtures that accept an ES-E27 Edison screw base. The G95 globe shape is best suited for decorative fixtures where the bulb is visible, such as pendant lights or chandeliers.
What is the lifespan of this LED bulb?
The bulb has an impressive lifespan of up to 15,000 hours.
Can I use any dimmer switch with this bulb?
No, this bulb requires specific compatible dimmer switches. Using a non-compatible dimmer may result in flickering or improper operation. Please refer to Philips' compatibility list for approved dimmers.
What is the color temperature of the light?
The bulb emits a warm white light at 2700K, and can dim down to 2200K with compatible dimmers thanks to DimTone technology.
What does 'specific luminous flux lamp 136lm/W' mean?
This indicates the lamp's efficacy, meaning it produces 136 lumens (a measure of brightness) for every watt of energy it consumes. This is a good measure of its efficiency.
Troubleshooting
Bulb does not turn on
Ensure the power is on at the switch and the bulb is securely screwed into the socket. Check if the socket is receiving power by testing with another compatible bulb. Verify the bulb is not faulty.
Bulb flickers when dimmed
This is often due to incompatible dimmer switches. Ensure you are using a dimmer specifically listed as compatible with Philips MASTERValue LED bulbs and their DimTone technology. Try testing with a different compatible dimmer if possible.
Light output is lower than expected
Confirm the bulb is fully screwed in. Check that the light fixture is not obstructed. Ensure the voltage supply is within the 220-240V range.
Colors in the room appear unnatural
While the bulb has a high CRI (90), ensure surrounding light sources do not interfere. Check that the bulb is functioning correctly and not damaged.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Ensure the power to the light fixture is switched off before installation. Screw the Philips MASTERValue LED bulb into the ES-E27 Edison screw (27mm) socket until snug. Then, restore power.
Compatibility: This bulb is designed for 220-240V electrical systems. For dimming functionality, it is *essential* to use specific compatible dimmers. Check the Philips documentation or consult an electrician to confirm dimmer compatibility, as standard dimmers may not work or could cause flickering.
Care: To clean the bulb, switch off the light and allow it to cool completely. Gently wipe the glass surface with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as they can damage the finish or internal components.
