Description
The Energizer 3.6W GU10 is a non-dimmable LED spotlight bulb delivering 345 lumens through a 36° beam angle at 4000K cool white. The GU10 twist-and-lock base fits standard UK mains-voltage spotlight fittings without requiring a transformer, making it a direct replacement for 35W halogen GU10s in downlights, track lighting and recessed ceiling fixtures.
Designed for task lighting in kitchens, bathrooms, home offices and commercial workspaces, the 4000K colour temperature sits between warm white (2700K-3000K) and daylight (5000K-6500K), producing a neutral white that renders colours accurately without the yellow cast of warmer bulbs or the clinical blue tone of daylight. The narrow 36° beam concentrates light into a defined pool rather than spreading it wide, making the bulb well-suited to spotlighting work surfaces, sinks, countertops and desk areas.
The bulb measures 50mm diameter by 54mm height, matching the form factor of traditional halogen GU10s so it sits flush in most downlight housings. At 3.6W it draws approximately 90% less power than the 35W halogen equivalent it replaces, with Energizer rating the LED lifespan at 15 years under typical domestic use patterns (approximately 15,000 hours). The bulb is non-dimmable and should not be paired with dimmer switches.

Frequently Asked
Is this bulb dimmable?
No. The Energizer 3.6W GU10 is non-dimmable and must not be used with dimmer switches. Installing it on a dimmed circuit may cause flickering, buzzing or premature failure.
What's the difference between 4000K and 3000K?
4000K cool white produces a neutral white light without the warm yellow tone of 3000K. It renders colours more accurately and is typically preferred in kitchens, bathrooms and task-focused spaces where clarity matters. 3000K warm white suits living rooms and bedrooms where a softer, more relaxing light is wanted.
Does it need a transformer?
No. GU10 bulbs run directly on 230V mains voltage. They twist and lock into the fitting without requiring a transformer, unlike GU5.3 and MR16 low-voltage equivalents.
How does the 36° beam angle affect light spread?
A 36° beam angle produces a concentrated pool of light directly below the bulb, ideal for spotlighting specific areas like worktops or sinks. Wider beam angles (60°+) spread light more evenly across a room but reduce intensity at the centre of the pool.
