High-Quality LED Globes With a Bayonet Base
Upgrade your Bayonet Cap bulbs to these bright and efficient B22 LED lights from Philips. They include features unavailable in similar-looking light bulbs, such as low glare and improved colour performance.
- Standard Bayonet Bulb - replace any light bulb with a Bayonet Cap base, also called 'B22' or 'BC'.
- Energy Saving - reduce your energy usage by over 85% compared to traditional incandescent bulbs.
- Philips EyeComfort - enjoy low-glare light that's gentle on your eyes.
- True Colour - experience vibrant, natural colours with a high Colour Rendering Index of 90 on the 6W to 12W variants.
- High Brightness - all options produce plenty of light for their wattage, but you can choose the 14.5W or 19W models for maximum brightness.
Step 1: Choose a Pack Size
We offer a discounted price when you purchase these bayonet lights in cartons of six units. See our option selector for details.
Step 2: Choose a Wattage (Brightness)
Here's how they compare in brightness to old-fashioned light bulbs:
- 6W = 60W incandescent or 10W Compact Fluorescent (CFL)
- 8W / 10W = 75W+ incandescent or 15W CFL
- 12W = 100W incandescent or 20W CFL
- 14.5W = 120W incandescent or 25W CFL
- 19W = 160W incandescent or 30W CFL
All light bulbs up to 14.5W are a standard light bulb size and shape at just 6cm wide. These are known as GLS (General Light Service) or A60 bulbs. The brightest 19W model is slightly larger at just under 7cm wide, known as an A67.
Step 3: Choose Your Preferred Colour Temperature
You can choose Warm White (3000K) or Cool Daylight (6500K). Colour temperature indicates whether light has a warm or cool tone.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is it available with a screw base?
Yes, see our Philips E27 (Edison Screw) LED light listing.
Can I use these B22 globes on my dimmer switch?
No. Please see our dimmable LED lights if you need to dim them.
Why do the 'equivalent wattages' vary?
The equivalent wattages shown on the Philips boxes are slightly higher for the lower wattage globes than what we think is appropriate. They say 65W, 76W, 89W, and 98W, respectively. We prefer a comparison to the actual wattage of old light bulbs, which were 40W, 60W, 75W and 100W. If in doubt, choose one size up, and you won't be disappointed!
Will they fit in my existing fitting? What other options are available?
With a classic 'A60' shape, these Philips Bayonet LED bulbs are 6cm wide and will fit in most lighting fixtures. The only exception is the 19W bulb, which is slightly larger. See the specifications table for the exact dimensions.
See our stick, candle, or other options in all LED light bulbs if you need a smaller or differently shaped globe.
