Description
This is a warm white LED bulb with a GU10 cap, the two-pin cap found in a great many spotlights and ceiling bars. It has a clear, faceted glass body with a frosted front lens that softens the beam, and it measures 5.4cm long and 5cm in diameter. It draws 2.5W and gives 450lm of light at 3000K, a warm white that feels relaxed and homely. With an IP20 rating it is made for indoor, dry rooms only, so keep it to lights well away from water.
It suits anyone replacing a tired GU10 bulb in a spotlight, a ceiling bar or a wall light, whether in the living room, the bedroom, the hallway or a study. The warm 3000K tone sits well with wood, fabric and painted walls, and the frosted lens spreads the light gently rather than throwing a hard, glaring spot. Because it draws so little power, it makes good sense in lights that stay switched on through long evenings, and its energy class A rating marks it as an efficient choice for everyday use.
The bulb is not dimmable, so pair it with a light on an ordinary on and off switch rather than a dimmer. It runs on a standard 220-240V, 50/60Hz mains supply and weighs 0.048KG packed. Care is simple: once the light has been switched off and the bulb has cooled, wipe the glass gently with a soft, dry cloth to keep the lens clear and bright. Before you order, check that your light takes a GU10 bulb and sits on a plain switch, and this one is ready to go.
