Cree continues to raise the bar in LED applications with the introduction of the TW Series^™ LED Candelabra bulb, delivering the exceptional lighting experience consumers expect from Cree’s best-selling LED Bulb portfolio. The Cree^® LED Candelabra bulbs emit a warm, decorative light while consuming up to 88% less energy* than traditional incandescent bulbs – making it ideal for candelabra fixtures, wall sconces and chandeliers. Available as 25- and 40-watt replacements, the new Cree LED Candelabra bulbs are sold in three-bulb multi-packs at The Home Depot^® stores for US $19.97.

 “Our innovative TW Series^™ LED Candelabra bulbs exceed customer expectations and bring them one step closer to the whole-home Cree^® LED experience,” said Betty Noonan, Cree chief marketing officer. “Cree is unyielding in our pursuit for brighter, more energy efficient lighting that delivers a better overall experience, so consumers never have to forfeit performance for affordability. Not all LED bulbs are created equal, and our best-selling LED bulb portfolio outpaces any competitor on the market today, demonstrating the quality commitment driving Cree innovation.”

Cree’s LED Candelabra Bulb is designed to provide a superior lighting experience with an exceptional Color Rendering Index (CRI) of 90 that displays warm, natural light so colors look the way they are intended to look. The new TW Series Candelabra LED bulb lasts up to 25 times longer than a typical incandescent bulb with an innovative filament specifically designed to improve light distribution and enhance the glow so it looks and lights like an incandescent candelabra bulb while providing a unique sparkle effect. The bulbs provide all the features of first-rate LED lighting, with instant-on performance, compatibility with most standard dimmers and a durable, shatter-proof design that delivers high-quality light for years to come.

“Exceptional color rendering is critical in moving consumers away from inferior, inefficient lighting and toward more efficient LED lighting technology,” said Michael Siminovitch, director, California Lighting Technology Center. “The new Candelabra bulbs extend Cree’s leadership in LED innovation and creation of consumer products that can truly transform the lighting marketplace, while delivering on customer demand for high-quality lighting for all of their needs.”
