What's the Best Bulb for a Table Lamp? Wattage, Colour Temp & Dimming Explained
Most people think in old incandescent watts, but LED doesn't work that way. This guide translates it properly: a 40W-equivalent (4–6W actual) suits most bedside lamps, 60W-equivalent (8–9W) suits a desk lamp. Plus the real reason a standard LED flickers on a dimmer, the base types that actually matter (E27, B22, E14), and why rechargeable bulbs are worth considering if load shedding is a factor.
