GU10 LED Spotlight Bulb 4.9W 44W-eq 120° 550lm IQ-LED - Daylight

This GU10 LED bulb is a directional spotlight lamp built around an IQ-LED chip, drawing just 4.9 W while putting out 550 lumens. The twist-lock GU10 cap runs straight from the mains at 220 to 240 V AC, so no separate transformer is needed. Its 120 degree beam is a wide spread for a spot, washing a broad area rather than a tight pinpoint. The 6500K daylight tone gives a crisp, neutral-cool light, and a CRI of Ra 90 keeps colours looking true. In US terms a GU10 is the standard mains twist-lock spotlight cap, distinct from the low-voltage MR16 pin-base that does need a driver.

Use it in recessed downlights, track heads and adjustable spotlight fittings around the home and indoor commercial spaces, working as a dry indoor lamp only. The wide 120 degree beam suits general accent and task light across kitchens, hallways and offices, spreading light over a worktop, shelf or display rather than throwing a narrow spot. At 550 lumens a single bulb covers a modest pool of light, so several across a ceiling grid give even coverage in a room. The daylight 6500K output works well where clear, alert light helps, such as a kitchen, study or retail display.

The bulb measures 50 mm across and 55 mm deep in a silver PAR16 body, weighing 44 g, so it drops into standard GU10 holders. It is rated at 112 lm/W for efficient running and a 25,000 hour lifespan, and replaces an older 44 W halogen spot while drawing only 4.9 W itself. This is a non-dimmable lamp, so pair it with a standard non-dimmed circuit. We stock matching GU10 lamps in other outputs across the range.

Product Specification Sheet

Range Datasheet

Which fitting does this bulb use?

It has a GU10 twist-lock cap, the standard mains spotlight fitting used in most recessed downlights, track heads and adjustable spots. It runs directly on 220 to 240 V mains, so unlike a low-voltage MR16 (GU5.3) lamp it needs no transformer or driver. Just push and twist it into a GU10 holder.

What old bulb wattage does it replace?

It draws only 4.9 W but gives 550 lumens, comparable to a traditional 44 W halogen spotlight. Swapping to it cuts running power sharply while keeping a similar brightness. The efficiency works out at 112 lm/W.

Is this bulb dimmable?

No, it is a non-dimmable lamp. It should be run on a standard, non-dimmed lighting circuit; fitting it to a dimmer switch can cause flicker or shorten its life. If you need dimming, choose a lamp rated for it.

What is the beam angle and colour like?

The beam is a wide 120 degree spread, so it lights a broad area rather than a tight spot, useful for general and accent lighting. The colour is 6500K daylight, a crisp cool-white tone, with a CRI of Ra 90 for accurate colour rendering.
