Many of the light fixtures in my house use the small Candelabra base bulbs. Although they use 20-25w per incandescent bulb, that adds up to 50w and 100w for several of the rooms (and chandeliers). ALL of these bulbs have small, individual lamp shades covering the bulbs.
I've replaced most of the standard base incandescent bulbs with compact florescent bulbs to save on energy costs, and I want to do the same with these bulbs. I know there are compact florescent bulbs are available in this size, but I'm curious about venturing into LED bulb territory even if it costs extra in the short term. I'm most interested in long-term savings.
Normally, LED bulbs are used for directional lighting, but with the lamp shades, is it possible to get a similar amount of light? If yes, where can I find these bulbs?
What you are looking for a called C7 led replacement bulbs. These have the candelabra base. I just ordered them through Amazon. Although these bulbs will fit exactly I suspect that they will not give off very much light. They only have 3 led's inside the bulb. (about 1 watt) These Could be used for effect but really not for lighting. The neat thing about these bulbs is that they are direct 120v replacements. Which means they can be used for night lights electric candles xmas lights etc. I just ordered them to experiment a little bit.
