Is this bulb suitable for bathrooms or outdoor fixtures?

While suitable for indoor use in kitchens, living rooms, etc., ensure any fixture used in a bathroom or outdoor location is rated for such environments and provides adequate protection from moisture.

What does CE and ROHS certification mean?

CE and ROHS certifications indicate that the product meets European safety, health, and environmental protection standards, ensuring it is safe for use and manufactured responsibly.

Troubleshooting

Bulb does not turn on

Ensure the power is on and the bulb is correctly seated in the G9 socket. Check if the fixture is compatible and if the breaker has tripped. Try the bulb in another known working fixture.

Flickering light

This can occur if the bulb is used with a dimmer switch or if there is an intermittent connection in the fixture. Confirm the bulb is in a non-dimmable fixture and ensure a secure connection.

Bulb turns on and off intermittently

Check the connection at the fixture and the power source. If the bulb is used in a fixture with a sensor or timer, ensure it is functioning correctly. Rule out issues with the dimmer switch if one is present (though it should not be used).

Premature bulb failure

Ensure the bulb is not used in an enclosed fixture that causes overheating, as this can shorten lifespan. Verify that the fixture's wattage rating is not exceeded and that the bulb is not subjected to excessive vibration.
