Q1: What is an E14 LED light bulb, and what does the 'E14' base mean?
A:An E14 LED bulb is a light bulb fitted with a 14mm Edison Screw base, commonly referred to as a "Small Edison Screw" (SES). It is widely used in smaller light fixtures like chandeliers, wall sconces, and bedside table lamps.
Q2: Can I use a 6W LED bulb to replace a 40W traditional bulb?
A:Yes. A 6W LED candle bulb generates approximately 450 lumens, which matches the light output of a traditional 40W incandescent bulb. You get identical brightness while consuming up to 85% less electricity.
Q3: What is the difference between 2700K and 6500K color temperatures?
A: A 2700K bulb produces a warm, yellowish-soft white light designed for relaxing spaces like bedrooms, living rooms, and dining areas. A 6500K bulb produces a bright, bluish daylight best suited for task-oriented environments like offices, kitchens, and study rooms.
Q4: Is the AURORE E14 6W B38 LED Bulb dimmable?

No, the AURORE AR00611 / AR00613 model is non-dimmable. Connecting this bulb to a standard wall dimmer switch can cause flickers, buzzing, or permanent damage to the LED driver.
Q5: How long does a 15,000-hour LED bulb last in normal home conditions?
A: If used for an average of 4 hours per day, a bulb rated for 15,000 hours will last approximately 10 years before requiring replacement.
Q6: What does a CRI rating of 80 mean for lighting quality?
A: CRI (Color Rendering Index) measures how accurately a light source reveals true colors compared to natural daylight. A CRI of 80 or above guarantees good color rendition for home and commercial interiors.
