Switching to LED and confused about what to buy? 💡 The LED market can be overwhelming — E27 or G9? 7W or 15W? Warm or cool light? This guide explains simply how to choose the right LED bulb for every room, save up to 80% on electricity, and match the bulb to your fixture.
Quick Summary
✅ E27 is Israel's standard base — fits most light fixtures
💡 2,700K–3,000K = warm light for bedroom/living room; 4,000K+ = neutral/cool for kitchen/office
⚠️ LED watts differ from incandescent: 9W LED = ~60W old bulb
🔧 For recessed spotlights choose G9 COB or GU10 — match your fixture

What to Know Before Buying 🧰
Base type: Check your fixture: E27 (large screw) — most common in Israel, for globe and UFO bulbs. G9 (two round pins) — for spotlights and small table lamps. E14 (small screw) — for decorative lamps. Watts: LED 7W ≈ 60W incandescent, 9W ≈ 75W, 15W ≈ 100W. Colour temperature: 2,700K — warm cosy (bedroom/living). 3,000K — warm neutral (hallway/kitchen). 4,000K — neutral sharp (office/workshop). 6,500K — cool bright (garage/storage).
⚠️ Don't Install LED in a Sealed Fixture Without Checking!
LED bulbs generate heat at the base. A completely sealed fixture with no ventilation can reduce bulb lifespan from 25,000 hours to 5,000. Check that your fixture is 'LED compatible' or has ventilation openings.
Step by Step — Choosing and Replacing Correctly 👷
Step 1: Turn off power, remove the old bulb and identify the base: E27, G9, E14 or GU10.
Step 2: Choose the right wattage: 9W for a standard room, 15W for a large space, 35W UFO for garages.
Step 3: Choose colour temperature: 2,700K for bedroom/living room, 4,000K for kitchen/office.
Step 4: For G9 spotlights — choose Nisko G9 COB 4W warm (₪14) or G9 6W cool (₪10).
Step 5: For heavy-duty spaces — the Nisko UFO 35W 4000K E27 (₪60) delivers ~3,500 lumens — like 4 standard bulbs in one socket.
Step 6: Install the new bulb, restore power. If it flickers, the bulb driver is faulty — replace.
Step 7: Save comparison: 9W LED for 8hr/day = ~26 kWh/year vs. 175 kWh for a 60W incandescent. Save ~149 kWh per bulb per year!
💡 Pro Tip
Buy the same bulb in bulk — matching colour temperature across a room looks far more professional. Nisko sells twin and triple packs at a special price — much cheaper than individual bulbs.
