Description
This is a pack of two GU10 LED bulbs in warm white, each a compact reflector shape 5cm across and 5.4cm long. The body is glass: a clear reflector with fine ribbed facets around the sides, closed by a frosted, satin finish lens at the front that hides the bright points of the LEDs. Each bulb gives 400 lumens at a colour temperature of 3000K, the warm, slightly golden white that suits a living room or bedroom. The IP rating is IP20, which settles where they belong: indoors, in dry rooms, in a fitting kept well away from steam and splashes.
GU10 is the cap used by a great many ceiling spotlights, track heads, downlights and wall spots, so these suit kitchens, hallways, living rooms and bedrooms wherever a fitting takes a GU10 bulb. The reflector shape sends the light forward, ideal for picking out a worktop, a shelf or a picture, and buying them as a pair means a twin spotlight gets the same warm colour from both bulbs. Before ordering, check that your fitting has room for a bulb 5cm across and 5.4cm long, as recessed fittings vary. These bulbs are not dimmable, so they belong on an ordinary on and off switch rather than a dimmer circuit.
Each bulb runs on 220-240V, 50/60Hz, the ordinary mains supply in a British home, so it goes straight into a mains GU10 holder. The energy class is D, and the pack weighs 0.121KG as packed. Glass is easy to wipe clean, which keeps the lens clear. When you order, count the GU10 holders you want to fill and allow one pack for every two.

Frequently Asked
Will these bulbs fit my spotlights?
They suit any fitting with a GU10 holder. Each bulb is 5cm across and 5.4cm long, so check that a recessed fitting has that much room.
Can I use these bulbs with a dimmer switch?
No. These bulbs are not dimmable, so put them in fittings on a standard on and off switch rather than on a dimmer circuit.
How warm is the light?
The colour temperature is 3000K, a warm white with a soft golden tone that suits living rooms, bedrooms and hallways.
How bright is each bulb?
Each bulb gives 400 lumens, and the pack holds two, so you can fill a twin spotlight or two single fittings in one go.
Can these bulbs go in a bathroom?
The bulbs are rated IP20, which means indoor, dry places only, so they are not for bathrooms, outdoor fittings or anywhere near water.
What material is the bulb?
The body is glass, with a clear ribbed reflector around the sides and a satin finish frosted lens across the front, above a white base.
