New Lamp Ratings?

My father brought these off Amazon today and the rating for the lamps is E?

I hear from Cobbett apparently there is a new rating for the amount of Lumens from a lamp?

Anyway thought this was interesting how LED is rated so low!

Ah yes, energy rating ‘goal posts’ have been moved yet there's no easy way to tell if you're looking at the older chart (these would be A or A+ probably) or the new. This makes things confusing even for people in the know.

Surprised these lamps are 4w and have 4 filaments, most manufacturers cheap out & only use two or three and overdrive the snot out of them!
