In response to European ban on the manufacture and import of all incandescent bulbsstarting Sep 1^st, 2012, Verbatim has unveiled a complete family of cost effective retrofit LED lamps for households.

Verbatim’s new consumer product line-up comprises 13 products including LED lamps to replace 25W to 60W Classic A bulbs, 15W to 25W Classic B candle lamps, 25W droplet bulbs and 20W spotlights for both MR16 GU5.3 and PAR16 fittings. Colour temperatures range from 2700K to 3000K and each model has a minimum colour rendering index (CRI) of 80. Packaged in distinctive green packaging. Verbatim’s LED consumer range is available through the company’s online store and through wholesalers and electrical retailers.

Five of the LED lamps in the new range are Classic A bulb replacements operating from a 220-240V grid supply. The LED lamps have power ratings between 4W and 11W and replace conventional bulbs rated from 25W to 60W. The 11W model delivers a light output of 810 lumens and the 4W model provides 250 lumens. All the lamps are available with either E27 (screw type) or B22 (bayonet) bases except a dimmable 9W option made exclusively for E27 sockets.

Consumers can choose between two MR16 spotlights fitting in GU5.3 sockets. The 4W rated model has a beam angle of 20° while the 6W version has a beam angle of 25°. Both spotlights are ideally suited to drawing attention to artwork in the living room or accent lighting in the bathroom. Ideal for accent lighting in the kitchen, bedroom or along the corridor, a 4W PAR 16 GU10 LED replaces 20W conventional bulbs and delivers 180 lumens of light output while a 4W LED R50 with E14 fitting with the same output completes the line-up.
