Our Analysis
PickyScore8.4/10A rechargeable LED bulb with a built-in Li-ion battery that automatically switches to backup mode during power cuts, delivering up to 3 hours of flicker-free cool daylight illumination.
Score Breakdown
Why this deal stands out
At ₹269 against an MRP of ₹649, this is a 59 percent discount. An emergency bulb with three hours of backup at this price point is uncommon. Most comparable rechargeable bulbs from other brands list above ₹400 for similar specifications.
Pros
- 3-hour backup duration is strong for this price bracket
- No separate installation or wiring required; fits standard B22 sockets
Cons to consider
- Cool daylight (6500K) may feel harsh in living spaces
- Built-in Li-ion batteries degrade over time and are not user-replaceable
Real-world Use
You replace your existing 12W bulb with this one. When the mains supply drops, the light stays on automatically and runs for up to 3 hours before the internal Li-ion cell needs recharging through the normal socket connection.
Price Opinion
₹269 is roughly 59 percent below the listed MRP of ₹649. For an emergency bulb with these specs, this is fair market pricing and not a marked-up original.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will this fit a standard B22 ceiling fixture?
Yes. The bulb uses a B22 bayonet cap, which is the common fitting for most Indian ceiling fans and tube light holders.
How long does the battery last before it needs replacement?
Built-in Li-ion cells typically retain useful capacity for 2 to 3 years with regular charge cycles. After that the backup duration will gradually decrease.
Can I use this as a regular bulb during the day?
Yes. It functions as a normal 12W LED bulb when mains power is available and only draws extra current from the battery when a power cut occurs.
