Description
The Knightsbridge G9LED10 is a 2W G9 LED capsule bulb with a frosted polycarbonate body, delivering 200 lumens of 2700K warm white light on 230V mains. The two-pin G9 base fits directly into any standard G9 socket, making it a drop-in replacement for 20-25W halogen G9 capsules in wall lights, chandeliers, and compact decorative fittings.
Designed for residential and hospitality interiors where halogen G9 bulbs need replacing with LED, the capsule reduces energy consumption by up to 90% compared to equivalent halogen output while maintaining the same warm colour temperature. The 270° beam angle provides omnidirectional light similar to halogen, so the fitting appearance remains unchanged when retrofitted. The compact 16mm diameter and 49mm height match the dimensions of most halogen G9 capsules, so the bulb sits within the fitting shade or cover without protruding.
The frosted polycarbonate diffuser softens the LED chip pattern and distributes light more evenly than clear capsules, reducing visible hotspots in translucent or open-frame fittings. The bulb is rated for 25,000 hours at L70B50 (the point at which 50% of a batch will have degraded to 70% of initial output), equating to approximately 13 years of use at 5 hours per day. The polycarbonate construction is lighter and more impact-resistant than glass, reducing breakage during fitting changes.

Frequently Asked
Is this bulb dimmable?
No. The G9LED10 is a non-dimmable LED capsule. Connecting it to a dimmer circuit may cause flicker, hum, or premature failure. If dimming is required, look for a dimmable G9 LED variant.
What halogen wattage does this replace?
The 2W LED output of 200 lumens is comparable to a 20-25W halogen G9 capsule. The exact perceived brightness depends on the fitting design and whether the halogen was clear or frosted.
Will it fit my existing G9 fitting?
The capsule is 16mm diameter and 49mm high, which matches the dimensions of most halogen G9 bulbs. If your existing halogen capsule fits within the shade or cover without protruding, this LED replacement should fit the same way.
How long does it last?
The bulb is rated for 25,000 hours at L70B50, meaning that after 25,000 hours of use, 50% of a batch will have degraded to 70% of their initial light output. At 5 hours of use per day, this equates to approximately 13 years before noticeable dimming.
