35W POST TOP RETROFIT - REPLACES UP TO 175W HID - E26 - 4000K 347 -LED-8033E40C-G7

SKU: LED-8033E40C-G7

Brand: LIGHT EFFICIENT DESIGN

Give tired old post top fixtures a second life without touching the pole, the wiring or the housing. This 35W LED post top retrofit from LIGHT EFFICIENT DESIGN — also called a corn bulb, HID replacement lamp or acorn/post top LED retrofit lamp — screws straight into the existing medium E26 socket and replaces up to 175W HID (metal halide or high pressure sodium). It is the fast, no-demolition answer for parking lot bollards, walkway lanterns, acorn fixtures, entry columns and decorative post tops that still burn an old ballasted lamp. One lamp change, one ballast bypass, and the fixture you already own puts out clean, modern LED light again.

The numbers behind it are simple and honest: 35W draw, 5290 lumens at 4000K neutral white, 80+ CRI, medium E26 base, and a 347 volt build made specifically for Canadian commercial and municipal services (it also works on 208V and 240V). Rated life is 50,000 hours L70, and the driver is pretested, potted and burnt in three times before shipping so it shrugs off vibration and moisture. Dual stage MOV protection with an integrated 6kA surge guard handles rough utility lines, and an active cooling fan with dynamic temperature control keeps the LEDs bright over the long haul. Operating range runs from -40°F to 122°F, and the 360° body measures 7.8" tall by 3.4" wide. Flip the side switch to "LO" to dim it to 50%. SKU: LED-8033E40C-G7.

This is the lamp for city sidewalks, condo and apartment grounds, church and school walkways, strip mall parking areas, campgrounds and municipal streetscapes where the fixtures are still good but the HID lamps are eating hydro. Multi-directional mounting means base down, base up or base sideways with no loss of performance — a real advantage in Canadian post top and lantern housings. Prefer another colour? The same lamp is offered as 35W post top retrofit E26 3000K or 35W post top retrofit E26 5000K, and in a mogul base as 35W post top retrofit EX39 4000K. Order yours and cut the maintenance calls this season.

Built for real outdoor abuse
The LED-8033E40C-G7 is a screw-in post top retrofit designed to live outdoors, year round. Its 360° lamp body measures 7.8" in height and 3.4" in diameter, compact enough to sit inside most acorn, lantern and decorative post top housings. An active cooling fan with dynamic temperature control pulls heat away from the LEDs instead of letting it bake the boards, which is what keeps output and colour stable over a long service life. The lamp is engineered to work efficiently in enclosed fixtures and damp environments, and is protected against insects and dust — the two things that quietly kill outdoor retrofits.

Light quality and output
At 4000K, this lamp gives neutral white light: crisper than warm 3000K, easier on the eye than cool 5000K, and excellent for security cameras and face recognition on walkways. With 5290 lumens from only 35W, it takes the place of a 175W HID lamp that has likely lost a good chunk of its original output over the years. 80+ CRI keeps signage, brick, landscaping and vehicle colours looking natural instead of the yellow-orange wash of old high pressure sodium.

Electrical and installation
This is the 347 volt version built for Canadian commercial and municipal distribution, and it also runs on 208V and 240V. The existing HID ballast must be bypassed so the lamp sees line voltage directly at the E26 socket — standard practice for any HID to LED retrofit, and work for a licensed electrician. Multi-directional mounting is a genuine feature here: install base down, base up or base sideways without affecting performance, which solves the awkward socket orientations found in older post tops and bollards. The stepped dimming switch on the side of the lamp is set at install; choose "LO" for 50% output on low-traffic zones such as back lanes or overnight parking areas. Drivers are pretested, potted and burnt in three times prior to shipping, and the LED driver is USA designed and specified.

Where it works and what else to look at
Think municipal streetscapes and sidewalks, condo and apartment grounds, hotel and restaurant entrances, school and church walkways, RV parks, cemeteries and strip mall lots — anywhere the decorative housing is worth keeping and only the lamp needs to change. For crews standardizing a whole site, the same platform is available as 35W post top retrofit EX39 4000K for mogul sockets, and in warmer or cooler light with the 3000K E26 version. For wall packs and shoe box heads on the same property, look at the 50W shoe box and wall pack retrofit 347V.
