Does the model suit your lighting task?
Lepro E14 candle lamp, pack of six, 4.5 W and 470 lm stands in this selection for existing E14 lamp holders in chandeliers and wall lights, without a dimmer, with class F. That is a narrower and more honest statement than a blanket “good” or “bad”. A lamp can be technically decent and still disappoint in the wrong place. That is why this review starts with the intended use, not with a score.
The deciding figure is the luminous efficacy. 470 lumens divided by 4.5 watts gives 104.4 lumens per watt, at a factor of 1.000 for a non-directional mains-powered light source. That is class F, and class E would only begin at 110 lumens per watt.
For this model there are 5 readable product features from the Amazon listing. They are not presented as independently confirmed measured values. We explicitly separate what the source states from our practical assessment. We do not claim any long-term, laboratory or room trials of our own. We reproduce the quoted listing texts unchanged in content, but apply the house style for punctuation: dashes become a colon or comma, ranges are written out with “to”, and special characters and advertising symbols are removed. Numbers, units and statements are left untouched.

Listing claim: Energy-saving LED lamps
What the source states: Energy-saving LED lamps: Lepro LED candle lamps can replace conventional 40W E14 light bulbs and help save over 89% of the electricity bill.
Why this matters: This claim describes a product feature, but does not yet answer whether it is practical for existing E14 lamp holders in chandeliers and wall lights, without a dimmer, with class F. What matters is the link to the planned location. On paper, 4.5 watts against 40 watts saves 88.75 percent of the power, because 4.5 divided by 40 gives 11.25 percent. The claim of over 89 percent is just above the calculated value. The actual electricity bill also depends on burning hours and price.
Listing claim: Perfect candle bulbs
What the source states: Perfect candle bulbs: These light bulbs instantly provide 470 lumens of warm light and ensure a pleasant light output in every room.
Why it matters: The amount of light can only be assessed together with beam angle, distance and the area lit. A high figure alone does not yet say whether the light arrives in the right place.
Listing statement: High colour rendering
What the source states: High colour rendering: The CRI of these E14 LED light bulbs is above 80 and offers vivid and natural colours. Suitable for kitchen, living room, dining room, bedroom, hallway and more.
Why this matters: For the assessment, what counts is whether this feature brings a concrete benefit in everyday use. Without a matching lighting task it remains mainly a data sheet point. In the EU product register, related Lepro candles with 470 lumens at 4.5 watts show a colour rendering index of 80 and an R9 of 10. A value above 80 is therefore not covered, and 80 is the stated value.
Listing claim: Long lifetime
What the source states: Long lifetime: Each E14 light bulb is expected to last 15,000 hours, which saves you the cost and trouble of frequent light bulb changes. Fits perfectly in smaller light fittings such as chandeliers, ceiling fans, wall lights and pendant lights. You receive 6 x non-dimmable E14 LED light bulbs. No mercury, UV or IR light, safe for your family and environmentally friendly.
Why this matters: Dimmable is only a usable claim once the operating method, steps and possible compatibility are clarified. With a light bulb, the existing dimmer switch must also suit the LED. The 15,000 hours are a supplier claim. The register gives no number of hours, but a lumen maintenance of 0.96 and a survival factor of 1.0.
Listing claim: Description of the energy efficiency class
What the source states: Description of the energy efficiency class: According to the new ErP standards (EU 2019/2015), the former energy efficiency class "A+" corresponds to today's energy efficiency class "F". Nothing changes in the energy efficiency, only the calculation method of the energy efficiency class is different.
Why this matters: The energy efficiency class places the product on the EU scale from A to G, where G is the lowest level. It says nothing about light quality, but shows how much power is needed for the amount of light produced. More important than the letter is how many hours a year you actually run it. The claim that A+ corresponds to F today is correct. With 470 lumens at 4.5 watts that is 104.4 lumens per watt at a factor of 1.000, and class E would begin at 110 lumens per watt.
Use in daily life
The lamp is not stood anywhere but screwed into an existing E14 lamp holder. It needs no socket of its own and no accessories, only a light that takes a light bulb with a 35 millimetre diameter. It is operated with the switch, since it has no dimmer.
For this model, the purchase decision should therefore hinge on a concrete situation. Before buying, write a sentence such as: “I need light for …” and add place, time of day and activity. If the model does not clearly fulfil this task, an alternative from the same category is probably the better choice.
The lamp is not built for dimmer circuits or for areas where accurate colour judgement matters, because the colour rendering index is 80. No health effect is claimed.
Strengths and limits of the assessment
What speaks for the model
- Product image, ASIN and listing data are clearly linked to one another.
- The design can be matched to a specific lighting task: for existing E14 lamp holders in chandeliers and wall lights, without a dimmer, with class F.
- The available features allow a targeted check before buying, without inventing a star rating.
What remains open
- No long-term use of our own, no light measurement and no documented load check.
- Listing details can be abbreviated or change with variants and model updates.
- Room effect, glare and ease of use depend on your location and daily routine.
The most common wrong purchase happens at the dimmer: a non-dimmable lamp on a dimmable circuit flickers or hums. The second stumbling block is the expectation about efficiency, because class F is not a top class but the rating of 104.4 lumens per watt. On top of that comes the uncertainty about the shape: because of the two registered heights, the candle may turn out longer than the lamp holder in the shade allows.
What you should measure and check before buying
Before buying, measure the height of the lampshade or glass dome, because the related registrations give 97 and 103 millimetres at 35 millimetres in diameter. Also check whether the light is connected to a dimmer switch, because the lamp is not dimmable. Read the model identifier on the packaging and compare it with the register to confirm the key figures.
- Clarify the task: Clarify whether you need a simple candle lamp for a switched circuit or a dimmable lamp. Those are two different classes of light bulb.
- Check the lamp holder: Compare the cap in the light with E14 and read the maximum permitted wattage on the rim of the holder.
- Measure the installation height: Measure the free height in the shade and compare it with the 97 to 103 millimetres that the related registrations give.
- Check the dimmer: Find out whether the light is connected to a dimmer switch. The lamp is not dimmable.
- Check the model identifier: Read the identifier on the packaging and compare it with the EU product register before you trust the values.
If you are unsure how much light your room needs at all, work it out once: the lumens-to-watts chart translates wattage figures into actual brightness, and how many lumens per room are needed depends on area and activity. Further models from this area are in the overview under home lighting, and the lighting calculator translates your room into a concrete target brightness.
Set-up, position and first check
Before changing, switch off the power and let the old lamp cool down. Twist the candle into the E14 holder without using force, and check that it does not touch the shade. If a dimmer switch is on the circuit, set it to full load beforehand or remove it.
After set-up, do not judge the light only in daylight. In the evening, switch the rest of the lighting as you normally use it, and check the situation from seated, standing and walking height. Only then do disturbing reflections, hard shadows or an unfavourable switch position become visible.
Note down the model number and order date and keep whatever paperwork is in the box. For this item there are neither instructions nor a manufacturer page to download, and in the event of a complaint the retailer is the only point of contact. In a warranty claim, both are the only proof of which device you bought. Light bulbs and holders remain replaceable, so a later change of brightness or colour temperature is possible. This device is intended for indoor use only and is not approved for damp rooms or outdoor use.
Comparison with similar models
The comparison does not name winners. It shows models of the same category so that you can see whether one of them is closer to your lighting task. If two models have the same task in the Assessment column, they do not differ in purpose but in design, dimensions and features. The column then states what is actually different according to the sources.

Our buying decision
Lepro E14 candle lamp, pack of six, 4.5 W and 470 lm makes sense if you are looking for a lamp for existing E14 lamp holders in chandeliers and wall lights, without a dimmer, with class F, you have checked the dimensions at the intended location and you will actually use the functions named in the listing. The purchase is less convincing if you expect a universal solution for several conflicting lighting tasks.
Keep looking if key data such as dimensions, light output, IP rating or compatibility is not clearly documented for your intended use. The same applies if you only like the look of the design, but the cable, the floor space or the controls would get in your way in daily use.
We deliberately award no stars. A numerical score would suggest a measurement accuracy that does not exist without documented hands-on testing. The statement this page can support is narrower: which details are available, what the model may be suited for, and which questions remain open before you buy?
Frequently asked questions about the E14 candle bulb
What energy efficiency class does the Lepro E14 candle lamp have?
Class F on today's scale from A to G. The calculation is 470 lumens divided by 4.5 watts equals 104.4 lumens per watt at a factor of 1.000, because the light source is non-directional and mains-powered. Class F applies from 85 lumens per watt, class E from 110.
Is the lamp dimmable?
No, according to the listing it is not dimmable, and the two matching registrations in the EU product register also list it as not dimmable. If the lamp holder is connected to a trailing-edge dimmer switch, you should choose a lamp that is explicitly dimmable, otherwise flickering or humming is likely.
Will the lamp fit my light with an E14 holder?
According to the listing it has an E14 cap, although the register gives the connection only in general terms. The dimensions are registered as 35 millimetres in diameter and 97 to 103 millimetres in height. Measure the height inside the shade before buying, because the listing gives no dimensions.
Does it really replace a 40-watt incandescent lamp?
In terms of luminous flux, yes, because 470 lumens correspond to roughly a 40-watt incandescent lamp. The saving works out at 88.75 percent of the power. The register gives no comparison value in watts for the two registrations.
How warm is the light?
The register gives a single colour temperature value of 2700 kelvin, which is a warm white. The colour rendering is stated with an index of 80. The lamp does not change colour.
Is there a manufacturer document for exactly this model?
No, we did not find one that can be matched unambiguously. The domain lepro.de resolves and has a legal notice, but the listing gives no model identifier. Two register records with the same key figures are candidates, but the match is not documented.
Sources and currency
The sources are ranked by their closeness to the product: manufacturer documents come before retailer or comparison data. A shop listing is useful for the variant currently on offer, but it is not an independent check. Missing documents are not replaced with invented experiences.
- EU product register EPREL, registration 1063199 for model identifier 600038-WW-EU-a-6, entered by Lepro Innovation GmbH (retrieved 02.11.2026): 470 lumens at 4.5 watts in on-mode, a single colour temperature value of 2700 kelvin, colour rendering index 80, R9 equals 10, not dimmable, non-directional (NDLS), mains-powered (MLS), energy efficiency class F, dimensions 35 millimetres in diameter and 103 millimetres in height, lumen maintenance 0.96, survival factor 1.0.
