What does E27 stand for and where is this type of bulb used?
The designation E27 describes a screw base with the letter "E" referring to the name of the inventor Thomas Alva Edison, while the number 27 indicates the diameter of the base in millimetres. The dimensions of this "Edison thread" are internationally standardised in accordance with IEC 60061:2014 and DIN 40400. E27 bulbs are used in numerous areas due to their versatility and performance and fit into most lights with screw sockets. Take a look at our lights to find an attractive indoor light with an E27 socket.
The development of the E27 base: from traditional light bulb to LED
The E27 base has a long history and has been a lighting standard since its invention. From classic light bulbs to halogen and energy-saving lamps to modern LEDs: the base has remained the same, while the technology has constantly evolved. Today, the bulbs are not only more efficient, but also more versatile than ever before.
Why is the E27 base so popular?
The popularity of the E27 base is due to its universal applicability. It is used worldwide, is easy to use and is compatible with a wide range of lights. Whether for decorative purposes, large-area lighting or energy-efficient solutions - the E27 base has options for all your needs.

Lifespan and brightness of E27 light bulbs
E27 LED bulbs not only offer an impressive service life of up to 25,000 hours, but also boast a high level of energy efficiency. The luminous flux, which is specified in lumens, varies depending on the model and intended use. The choice of colour temperature is just as important: warm white light with less than 3,000 Kelvin creates a cosy atmosphere in your rooms, while neutral white (approx. 4,000 Kelvin) or cool white light tones (over 6,000 Kelvin) are ideal for clear vision and working environments. Use the intelligent filter function on our website to refine your search results by dimmability, colour temperature and rated luminous flux value.
Frequently Asked Questions
What are the advantages of E27 LED bulbs?
E27 LED bulbs boast a high level of energy efficiency, an impressive service life and wide range of applications. However, their greatest advantage lies in their universal compatibility: thanks to the international standard, there are countless models offering the right solution for every lighting need. The choice is almost limitless and meets all modern requirements.
Can I also use E27 light bulbs outdoors?
Yes, E27 light bulbs are also suitable for outdoor use. It is important that they are used in a weatherproof light with an appropriate level of protection so that they are reliably protected from dirt and dripping and/or splashing water.
Are all E27 LED bulbs dimmable?
No, not all E27 LED bulbs are dimmable. Make sure that the product description and the technical data sheet clearly specify this feature and ensure your dimmer is compatible with LED bulbs. Dimmable LED bulbs not only enable flexible lighting, but also save energy when dimmed.
What is the difference between E27 and E14?
The difference between the two sockets lies in the diameter of the screw base: while E27 has a diameter of 27 millimetres, the E14 is significantly smaller at 14 millimetres. E14 is often used for more delicate lights such as chandeliers or table lamps.
