QUOTE(idoblu @ Dec 3 2016, 09:19 PM) I only got 3 table lamps that uses E27 bulbs If fixture easy to modify, convert the base from E14 to E27. The only use case for E14 off hand that I recall is tiny wall pendant lighting fixture and candelabras apart from those kitchen hood, oven, salt lamp and fridge bulbs. Try Megaman in BV 2 (Amazon lighting 3rd floor). They do have a variety of LED replacements unless you're looking at multi spectral mood inducing types.I am also using 10 E14 bulbs but unfortunately LIFX do not have E14 bulbs yet The majority of my lights are using MR16 type LEDs - i got 62 MR16 Im waiting for E14 LIFX bulbs |

Im not in a hurry to spend more money anyway |
