What type of socket does this bulb use?

Troubleshooting

Bulb does not light up

Ensure the power switch is on. Verify the bulb is screwed in securely. Check if the E27 socket is receiving power by testing with another compatible bulb. Inspect the bulb for any visible damage.

Flickering light

Check that the bulb is fully screwed into the socket. Loose connections can cause flickering. If the issue persists, try the bulb in a different compatible fixture to rule out socket issues. Ensure the light fixture is not incompatible with LED bulbs.

Reduced brightness over time

Ensure the bulb is clean and free from dust. Check that the fixture is not enclosed, which can cause overheating and reduced performance. Verify the bulb is not being used with a dimmer switch if it's not designed for dimming.
