Description
This G9 capsule LED bulb is a small bi-pin lamp that drops into G9 fittings in place of an older halogen capsule. It draws just 3.5W yet replaces a 34W bulb, putting out 385 lumens at a crisp 6500K daylight tone. The wide 320 degree beam spreads light almost all the way around the capsule, so it lights an enclosed fitting or shade evenly rather than throwing in one direction. American buyers will know the format as a G9 bi-pin lamp.
Being a bi-pin capsule, this bulb suits the compact G9 holders used in many decorative ceiling and wall fittings, plus desk and table lamps that take several small lamps together. The daylight 6500K colour gives a bright, clean light that works well for kitchens, bathrooms vanity fittings and task corners where you want clarity rather than a warm glow. It is for dry indoor use only, so keep it clear of outdoor and damp locations. The CRI Ra 80 keeps colours looking natural under everyday light.
Measuring just 16mm across and 50mm long and weighing 12g, the capsule fits neatly into tight holders and multi-lamp fittings. It runs on 220 to 240V AC and is fully dimmable, so it can be paired with a compatible dimmer to set the level you want. Rated at 15,000 hours with an efficiency of 110 lm/W, it keeps running costs and lamp changes low over its life. The finish is white. We stock this lamp in other wattages and tones across the G9 range.

Frequently Asked
What fitting does this bulb use?
It has a G9 bi-pin cap, the two small looped pins used in compact G9 holders. It pushes straight into the holder rather than screwing or twisting in. Check your fitting takes a G9 capsule before ordering.
What old bulb wattage does it replace?
This LED draws only 3.5W but gives the light output of a 34W halogen capsule, around 385 lumens. The 3.5W figure is the actual power it uses, so it cuts running costs sharply while matching the brightness you are used to.
Is it dimmable?
Yes, this G9 capsule is dimmable. Pair it with a compatible LED dimmer to adjust the level. For smooth dimming, use a trailing-edge dimmer rated for LED loads.
What does the 6500K daylight colour look like?
6500K is a bright, cool daylight white with a clean, crisp feel rather than a warm yellow glow. It suits kitchens, vanity areas and task spots where you want clear, true light. The CRI Ra 80 keeps colours looking natural.
