Verbatim to launch LED lamps with UK bayonet fittings
Verbatim has announced two new LED lamps designed for the popular UK sockets, the B22 bayonet fitting.
The company, a division of Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation, is the first major brand to offer the Classic A style LED lamps, which offer 75% energy savings over traditional incandescent bulbs and have a service life of 35,000 hours.
To date, most LED lamp manufacturers have only introduced products with screw fittings to address the larger continental European market, or spotlights.
There are two B22 lamps, a 6.5W model designed to replace 25W incandescent light bulbs and an 10W version for replacing 40W bulbs. Both offer a warm white light with colour temperatures of 2700K and 3000K respectively. They are dimmable using standard dimmers and have a colour rendering index (CRI) of 80. An 8W version will be announced later this year.
