Description
This is a corn-type LED lamp on a GU10 twist-and-lock base, finished in opal white. It draws 4W and gives 360 lumens at 3000K, a warm white with a gentle yellow cast that sits happily alongside older tungsten lighting. The opal body spreads its light all round rather than pushing it forward in a cone, so the glow is even instead of directional. It is not dimmable, so it wants a plain on-off switch.
We reach for this one where a GU10 holder sits inside a shade or a glass diffuser and a narrow reflector lamp would only burn a bright disc onto the ceiling. It suits small pendants, wall lights and semi-flush fittings, picture lights and the smaller decorative pieces in hallways and on landings. Because it stands a little taller than a standard reflector, it is worth checking the depth inside the fitting before you order. Warm white of this sort reads well in sitting rooms and bedrooms, where a cooler light can feel clinical.
The finish is opal white throughout, so the lamp reads as a soft pale shape when it is off as well as when it is lit, which helps in open fittings where the lamp is on show. It carries a two year warranty. For cleaning, switch off at the wall and give the lamp time to go properly cold, then take it out and wipe the opal with a dry lint-free cloth, holding it by the base rather than gripping the body. Keep it to indoor rooms that stay dry and away from steam and splashes. We stock the wider range in G4 capsules, GX53 discs and large E27 globes, so a whole house can be run on one warm white. These are sold singly.

Frequently Asked
How big is it?
It measures 29mm in diameter and 81mm in height, so it is slim but taller than a standard GU10 reflector. Check the space behind your fitting's holder before ordering.
Can it be dimmed?
No. It is a non-dimmable lamp and should be run from an ordinary switch. On a dimmer circuit you may see flicker or buzz, and the lamp's life will suffer.
What sort of light does it give?
360 lumens at 3000K, an all-round warm white rather than a focused beam. It is a good choice inside shades and diffusers, less so where you want a tight pool of light on a worktop.
Will it fit my existing GU10 fittings?
The base is the standard GU10 twist-and-lock two-pin type, so it goes into any GU10 holder. The only thing to watch is depth, as the body is longer than the usual reflector shape.
How long should it last?
It is rated at 20,000 hours of average life. Running it on a dimmer or in a very enclosed, hot fitting will shorten that.
Does it match the other warm white lamps you sell?
Yes. The 3000K warm white here is the same tone as the G4, GX53 and E27 globe lamps in the range, so mixed fittings in one room stay consistent.
