Forever Stamp Bulb! Never, ever buy another light bulb for your sewing machine! No more burn-out inconvenience. This 21st century marvel is so energy efficient, it uses only 2 W for 20 Watts of light. It will fit most sewing machines with Screw-in type light bulb, Brother and Singer brands among many. Rated at AC 120V, for use in US.

This practically Forever sewing machine light bulb is the ultimate replacement, regardless of whether current light bulb is working or not. Why? 1) Because the fragile thin filament in an ordinary light bulb could burn out anytime while it is heated to 1000’s degrees hot to produce light, 2) this heating wastes almost 90% of electricity used.

However an LED bulb gives out 10 times light with far less electricity and lasts v-e-r-y long time. Recently I’ve noticed a 5W clear nightlight bulb with “18 Lumens” printed on the package… This 2W LED bulb outputs about 200 Lumens.

Technical A typical incandescent light bulb in a Sewing machine consumes as much as 15W of electricity and gives out about 1.5 W of light. 13.5W (90%) is used to heat the filament to glow, which in turn illuminate the area. As we have lived long enough, now we have transistorized replacements for the Thomas Edison era’s i-n-c-a-n-d-e-s-c-e-n-t light bulbs. It’s about time for LED light bulbs for our sewing machines. With longevity of solid state electronics (reads transistors), an LED bulb is a hot replacement for the hot incandescent bulb. BTW, LED stands for Light Emitting Diode, a semi-conductor.

Specifications

• Overall Size: 7/16” x 2” (base diameter x length) or 11 x 52 mm, about the same sizes as the original bulb [Picture below shows an OEM bulb from Singer Model 1120. Note: Smaller bulb-like is a shadow.]
• Screw-in base: 7/16” diameter, [Not the “push & twist” kind]
• Electricity Use: 2.6 (max) – 2.0 W at 120 V, as measured by Kill A Watt.
• Brightness: 200+ Lumens [cf: 60W incandescent bulb produces about 800 Lumens]
• Color Temperature: Daylight White, approximately 5000˚K [Standard incandescent bulb gives out warm white, a reddish light at 3000˚K]

Frequently Asked Questions

Q) Will it fit my sewing machine?
A) Yes, as long as the base is 7/16” diameter (approximately 11 mm) screw-on. This is commonly called candelabra base and frequently used in nightlights, light fixtures above dinner tables and chandeliers in foyer. FYI: The diameter of screw-in bulb is measured by the peak to peak (thread ridge to ridge) or valley (thread groove) to valley.

Q) Truly, will this bulb last forever?
A) PRACTICALLY forever! Manufacturer claims 50,000+ hours like most LED bulbs in the market. If used 8 hours per day, it will come to 17 years [50,000 hours / 8 hr/ day = 6250 days ≈ 17 yrs]. Average of casual use, say 2 hours a week [Well, I haven’t used my sewing machine for 6 mos…], it will be 480 years. However I have not lived 480 years (!) nor tested the bulb for 17 years yet. One sure thing, wouldn’t it payoff its extra cost in savings of electricity?

Q) Can I use it in a nightlight?
A) NO! Though this LED has the same candelabra base as with a common incandescent bulb, it keeps turning on and off. I believe the simple (and cheap) light sensor in a regular nightlight, which senses night and day, is not compatible with circuitry in this LED bulb.

I regularly burn-test these LED bulbs on on my dinner table light fixture before pre-packing and getting ready to ship.
