- Pick the shape for the fixture first - in an exposed fitting nobody notices the wattage, they notice the outline.
- Treat it as an accent - at 4.5W this is decorative output. In a cage pendant over a console or a pair of sconces beside a mirror it is right. As the only light in a living room it is not.
- Add a separate source if the room needs lighting - do not try to solve it by fitting more of these.
- Keep it exposed - the filament and the silhouette are the point, so a shade defeats it.
- Put it on a dimmer - any visible filament wants running below full output.
- Check the base is E26 - 26mm across the thread.
A pointed tip on a full-size base
Bullet tip is the shape: a rounded body drawn to a point at the top. On an E26 base it gives a decorative silhouette in fixtures that normally take a plain household bulb — a cage pendant, an open sconce, a bare-bulb fitting where the shape is doing the work.
The filament runs the length of the glass rather than sitting at one point, so the bulb reads as a line of warm light rather than a bright dot.

Shape matters more than specification here
In an exposed fixture, nobody notices the wattage. They notice the outline. Pick the shape that suits the fixture first, then check the output is enough for the job, and add a separate source if it is not.
An accent, not a room light
At 4.5W this is decorative output. In a cage pendant over a console table or a pair of open sconces beside a mirror it is exactly right. As the only light in a living room it is not, however many you fit.
