Every standard light fitting in a New Zealand home runs at 240V mains voltage, and Dulora's 240V globe range is the most complete version of that standard available. Covering all major base types, E27, B22, E14, B15, E12, G9, and GU10, the 240V range spans every globe form from GLS A60 and candle globes through to fancy round, filament, oversized, and spotlight formats. CRI 90 to 97+ across the 240V dimmable core range, with select low-voltage and shatterproof models at CRI 80; these are utility and specialty products distinct from the main dimmable decorative range.
For most New Zealand homes, every globe replacement decision starts here. The 240V collection is the one-stop browsing point for anyone replacing a globe and wanting to upgrade the colour quality, dimming performance, and lifespan of their existing fittings without any rewiring or new hardware.
All dimmable models work smoothly with Dulora's DimEzy range LED Light Dimmers. For low-voltage applications including bathroom wet areas and caravans, see 12V Globes and 24V Globes. For browsing by base type, see E27 Globes, B22 Globes, and GU10 Globes.

240V Globes: How to Choose the Right Globe for Every Standard New Zealand Fitting
How do I know if my fitting uses a 240V globe?
If your fitting is a standard ceiling pendant, wall light, floor lamp, table lamp, GU10 downlight, or G9 vanity fitting connected to your home's mains power, it uses a 240V globe. This covers the vast majority of all fittings in a New Zealand home.
The only exceptions are fittings that run off a separate driver or transformer (typically MR16 low-voltage downlights or under-cabinet G4 systems), and outdoor festoon lighting that may run at 24V. If you are not sure, check the label on the existing globe or the fitting itself: it will state the voltage.
Which base type do I need?
The base must match the socket in your fitting. The seven base types in the Dulora 240V range cover every standard fitting found in New Zealand homes. E27 is the standard Edison screw (27mm), the most common base in modern New Zealand homes, found in pendants, floor lamps, and table lamps. B22 is the bayonet cap, the traditional British-style connection common in older New Zealand properties. E14 is the small Edison screw (14mm) for compact chandeliers, bedside lamps, and decorative fittings. B15 is the small bayonet (15mm) for compact fittings. E12 is the miniature Edison screw (12mm), found in imported American-style candelabra fittings. G9 is the small mains-voltage bi-pin for modern designer wall lights and vanity bars. GU10 is the twist-lock spotlight base for recessed downlights.
Pull out the existing globe and check the base markings before ordering. The bases are not interchangeable.
What colour temperature should I choose for a 240V globe?
The right colour temperature depends on the room and how it is used. Extra Warm 2200K for dining rooms and feature pendants where deep amber atmosphere is the goal. Warm White 2700K for living rooms, bedrooms, and most general-purpose fittings. Soft White 3000K for kitchens and bathrooms where clarity and warmth are both needed. Natural White 4000K for home offices, garages, and utility spaces where task clarity is the priority.

Frequently Asked Questions: 240V Globes
- What is the difference between 240V and low-voltage LED globes?
- 240V globes connect directly to standard New Zealand mains voltage without a separate driver or transformer. Low-voltage globes (12V or 24V, including G4 and MR16) require a driver or transformer to step down from 240V mains. All standard ceiling pendants, wall lights, floor lamps, table lamps, GU10 downlights, and G9 fittings in a New Zealand home use 240V globes.
- What CRI rating do Dulora 240V globes have?
- Dulora 240V globes are built to CRI 90 to 97+ across the dimmable core range, with select premium models reaching CRI 97+ for near-perfect colour rendering. This means warm tones and colours appear natural and accurate, a visible improvement over standard CRI 80 globes.
- Do Dulora 240V globes dim smoothly?
- Yes. All dimmable models dim from 1 to 100 per cent without flicker or buzz when paired with a compatible trailing-edge LED dimmer, including Dulora's DimEzy range. See
- Are Dulora 240V globes certified for New Zealand?
- Yes. All Dulora 240V globes carry AS/NZS certification for New Zealand mains voltage and are covered by a three-year product warranty.
