- Pick globe or flame tip by the fixture - globe reads modern and suits sconces, small pendants and picture lights. Flame tip reads traditional and suits chandeliers.
- Check the base is E12 - 12mm across the thread, not the 26mm E26.
- Confirm it dims if the fixture is dimmed - not every LED candelabra bulb dims, and not every dimmer suits LED. A mismatch flickers, buzzes or fails early.
- Buy for the look in an occasional fixture - the power saving only shows on a fixture that runs every evening.
- Measure the space inside the shade - a globe is wider than a flame tip at the same base.
A small globe for a small fixture
G16.5 is a globe about 2 inches across on an E12 candelabra base. That combination suits the fixtures a full-size bulb overwhelms: a small wall sconce, a bathroom bar, a picture light, a compact pendant over a nightstand.
The glass is clear and the filament is on show, so the bulb reads as part of the fixture rather than something hidden inside it.

500 lumens from 5.5W
That is roughly a fifth of the power of the incandescent it replaces, for the same light. In a sconce left on every evening, the difference shows on a bill over a year. In a fixture switched on twice a month, it does not — buy for the look in that case, not the wattage.
Check it dims
Not every LED candelabra bulb dims, and not every dimmer suits LED. If the fixture is on a dimmer, confirm both before buying a set. A non-dimmable bulb on a dimmer will flicker, buzz, or fail early.
