Same-day boda delivery across Kampala
PowerBulb.ug operates as a Service Area Business — we do not run a public shopfront. When you WhatsApp an order, a boda-boda rider collects from our supplier and delivers directly to your gate across Kampala and close suburbs. No address, no confusion — share a Google Maps pin with us and the rider finds you.

Why rechargeable LED bulbs make sense in Kampala 2026
Since UEDCL took over from UMEME on 1 April 2025, Kampala outage patterns have shifted. Ntinda, Naalya, Kireka and parts of Makindye have reported 10+ hour outages in single stretches. Central zones (Kololo, Nakasero, Bugolobi) still see shorter but more frequent cuts — 2 to 4 hours, often at unpredictable times. Both problems are solved by the same answer: a rechargeable LED bulb in every main room.
The bulb screws into your existing E27 socket. When UEDCL power is on, it lights normally and charges itself invisibly. The moment mains cuts, it keeps glowing from built-in 2x 18650 lithium batteries for 4 to 5 hours on a full charge. No wiring, no switch to flip, no inverter, no generator, no fuel, no noise.
