What is the wattage of this bulb?
This bulb consumes 2W, making it highly energy-efficient.
What type of base does this bulb have?

Is this bulb suitable for outdoor use?
It is intended for indoor decorative use. Check your fixture's IP rating before installing it in an outdoor environment.
What does the '360-degree' light angle mean?
It means the light is distributed evenly in all directions around the bulb, rather than being focused in a specific beam.
Troubleshooting
Bulb does not light up when switched on
Ensure the bulb is fully screwed into the E27 socket and the fixture has power.
Light is flickering
Check if the bulb is on a dimmer switch; this model is not dimmable and will malfunction if connected to one.
Bulb surface appears cloudy
Wipe the glass gently with a soft, dry microfiber cloth to remove dust or smudges.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation of the E27 base is straightforward; ensure the power to the fixture is turned off before threading the bulb into the socket. Due to the glass structure, handle the bulb by its base during installation to prevent oils from your skin from smudging the surface or putting pressure on the glass envelope. This bulb is compatible with any standard E27 socket, though it is specifically paired with Nordlux's own AVRA line for the best visual result. To maintain the bulb, use a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. Because it is an LED, it stays cooler than traditional incandescents, but avoid using it in fully enclosed fixtures that might trap heat, as this can reduce the lifespan of the electronics.
