We offer a legal warranty on our products. If a product has a longer warranty, this will be stated on the product. With light bulbs the warranty equals the average lifespan of burning hours.
Importing incandescent light bulbs into the European Union has been banned since September 1, 2012. However, this prohibition does not apply to the so-called ”Reinforced Construction” light bulbs, which were originally intended for professional use. Lightbulbcheap.com has been supplying these light bulbs in more than 200 versions since 2010. An additional advantage is that the lamps are more resistant to shocks and often have a longer life.
Unfortunately we cannot give any guarantees about this. We expect to be able to deliver our complete collection until at least mid-2022. Naturally, we also have increasingly better alternatives to the incandescent lamp, such as our LED filament bulbs.

2200 - 2700K = Very warm atmospheric light. Ideal for living rooms, bedrooms and restaurants.
3000K = Warm light. Ideal for classic offices and general use.
4000K = Cool white light. Ideal for warehouses, workshops, stables but also offices with a modern and cool feel.
6500K = Very cool white light. For photography or galleries where bright neutral colors are important.
The fitting is often noted on the old lamp. You will then need a lamp with a matching fitting.
No. With a fluorescent tube, the wattage determines the length of the tube. If you choose a different wattage, the tube will have a different length.
With PL lamps, the lamp base is different per wattage. So another wattage lamp will not fit in your holder.
