Overview

The GE 25016 LED G25 globe bulbs are designed as direct replacements for 60-watt incandescent G25 globes, drawing only 5.5 watts while producing 500 lumens of soft white light at 2700 Kelvin. The G25 globe shape — roughly 3.125 inches in diameter — is a popular choice for bathroom vanity strips, pendant fixtures, and any application where the bulb is visible and a decorative form factor matters. The E26 medium base ensures compatibility with standard North American light sockets.

GE rates these bulbs to last approximately 13.7 years based on 3 hours of daily use, which substantially reduces replacement frequency and long-term cost compared to incandescent options. The 2700K color temperature closely replicates the warm tone of traditional incandescent lighting, making the transition to LED less noticeable in terms of ambiance. Sold as a two-pack, they are a practical pickup for replacing burned-out globes or upgrading a pair of fixtures to more efficient lighting without changing the character of the room.
