Five filament LED globes hanging on bare black pendant cords

Light globes in Sydney: the globe wall in Kensington

Bring the old one in. Whatever base, shape or voltage, there is a shelf for it, and someone who knows what you are holding.

In short

Cosmo Lighting Kensington stocks light globes of every kind at 91-93 Anzac Parade: LED classic, candle, fancy round, reflector and decorative filament shapes, dimmable LED globes, GU10, MR16 12 V, G4, G9 and tubular stick globes, 12 to 24 V DC globes, smart globes, consumer value packs, and halogen and incandescent globes for fittings that still need them, from Philips, Osram, Ledvance, GE and Liquid LEDs.

Half the people who walk in are holding a dead globe. That is the right way to do it: the base, the shape, the voltage and the colour temperature all matter, and the team reads them at a glance. From a 12 V MR16 for an old transformer to a decorative filament globe for a bare pendant, it is on the shelf.

Replacing halogens with LED is the most common job: lower power bills, cooler fittings and globes that last years. We will tell you whether your transformer or dimmer needs to change too, and when it is cheaper to replace the fitting.

We had a fantastic experience purchasing some lights from Cosmo lighting in Kensington. Effie and Alicia were great to deal with. Nothing was to much trouble in terms of helping us make the right choice for our lighting needs. Effie was even nice enough to bring a light from the Punchbowl store over to Kensington so we could see what it looked like. Besides being so helpful and very well priced, Effie and Alicia are just a ball of fun and we had a great laugh when we were in the shop. Highly recommend this business!

I would like to thank this team (Effie, George, Mark and Alicia) for their excellent customer services. We were attended by Mark on Sat, 3 Feb in the shop. We were very pleased with his patience, knowledge and useful guidelines/recommendations in the choice of the lights per our preference. We would like to thank Alicia for her prompt response on the phone in providing us the updated information, which was all impressive and appreciated. Most importantly, we were extremely grateful for the effort of Effie and George who came all the way from Kensington to North Shore to deliver the lights to us, even it's after business hours. Their customer oriented service exceeded my expectations. Great service like this makes us feel that they care about developing a long-term relationship with customers, which means more than just making a sale. Thank you so much once again for giving us such a wonderful experience with Kensington Cosmo. Hope we will see this fantastic team again soon.

Alicia and the team provided a great tailored experience to best suit my needs. They were friendly, conveniently located right off of the Kensington Light Rail stop, and had a plethora of knowledge on lighting and lamps. Highly recommend.

I needed lights for the lounge room, a statement piece for my stairwell and I also wanted a bedside lamp. The person who served me was happy to let me browse, I found a beautiful leadlight table lamp, which she insisted that she could hold until I was ready to collect it. I went back a few days later and found my Chandelier for the stairwell and two crystal ceiling lights for the lounge room. These are all still in the shop until I collect my house keys. I absolutely recommend this shop. If they do not have what you want, the staff will try to order the lights in.

I rang Cosmo lighting late on a Saturday afternoon needing some lights in a hurry for the electrician who was ready to install. They stayed open for me and waited for me to arrive. They were super helpful and patient in finding just the right lights to go with our home. Service was excellent. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. I will definitely be back.

Cosmo Lighting on the parade are a real gem with quality products at reasonable prices. Their personal friendly service is exceptional. Whenever I have a lighting problem or need advice I find Bruno is a mine of information always helpful and nothing is too difficult. Effie, Vicki and George are also extremely helpful in the business. Another benefit is the rear parking with easy access to the shop. This is rare in the Eastern Suburbs. I thoroughly recommend this store.

I came looking for a new transformer for a fluorescent light. I was advised transformers are ancient technology and was offered a new replacement light which simply fits into the mains power supply. I thought that this was brilliant and it turned out to be so. A friend who is an electrician fitted the light and it works like a charm and is a lot brighter than the previous one. I am very happy with the service provided by George and his mum. I would recommend Cosmo Lighting to anyone who needs their services. I will definitely be back.

This is one of the best “customer service / experiences” we’ve had in a long time: thank you to George and family. The store is full of great selections of fans, lights /light shades and lamps. We went into buy three fans - came away with 5 fans , 2 lamps and 6 light shades....no pushy sales just “ full care and good listening to our needs”. Amazing - thank you.

Effie and her team at Cosmo Lighting in Kensington have extensive product knowledge and provide exceptional service. The store has a great range of stock and is reasonably priced. There is also ample customer parking behind the store. There really is no need to go anywhere else to shop for lights.

Effie and Bruno are so lovely and helpful. I am in the midst of renovating an older house and they have been helping me source and replace all the older halogen lights for LED. Nothing is too much trouble for them. I wouldn’t even try the other shops. They can source everything for you! There is also easy parking at the back of the shop on Boronia Street. I wish all shops were like that!

FAQ

Light globes questions

Can I replace a halogen globe with an LED one?

Usually, yes. A 240 V halogen in a GU10 or bayonet fitting swaps straight to LED. A 12 V MR16 halogen runs off a transformer that may not drive an LED properly; we will tell you whether to change the transformer or the whole fitting.

What colour temperature should I choose?

Warm white (around 2700 to 3000 K) suits living rooms and bedrooms, neutral (4000 K) suits kitchens, bathrooms and laundries, and cool white (5000 to 6000 K) suits garages and work areas. Tri-colour globes let you pick after they are in.

Do you have hard-to-find globes?

Yes. Projector bulbs, oven and fridge globes, pilot lamps and odd bases are the kind of thing Cosmo keeps or can order. Bring the old globe or its markings.
