Description
This is a compact reflector lamp on GU10 pins, finished in opal white so the face reads as a soft even disc rather than a hard bright point. It draws 4W and gives a warm 2700K light at 290 lumens, close to a small halogen spot in feel but without the heat that came with one. The beam is fairly tight, so the light lands where it is aimed instead of washing across a whole room, and it is not dimmable, so it wants a plain switched circuit rather than a dimmed one.
We reach for a lamp like this in spotlight bars over a worktop, in shelf and cabinet lighting, and in any fitting that takes small reflector lamps where the room wants warmth rather than glare. The tighter beam earns its place on pictures, glassware and open shelves, where a wide flood would only spill past the thing you meant to light. It suits anyone working through a house of tired halogen spots, and we sell it as a single lamp so a run can be swapped at your own pace, one fitting at a time. Dry rooms indoors are its place; damp or exposed positions call for something sealed.
The opal face diffuses the light behind it, which takes the edge off the source when the lamp sits in view, and the white body stays quiet against a white ceiling or a pale spotlight bar. For cleaning, let it cool first, then wipe the face with a dry cloth and keep sprays and damp away from the pins. It carries a three year warranty. The wider range runs to G4 capsules, GX53 discs and larger E27 globes in warm and cooler whites, so a whole house can sit on one family of lamps without the light changing character from room to room.

Frequently Asked
Can I put this on a dimmer switch?
No. It is a non-dimmable lamp and should run on a plain on/off switch. On a dimmed circuit you are likely to get flicker, buzz or a shortened life.
How warm is the light compared with an old halogen spot?
Very close. At 2700K it is a warm white with a gentle yellow cast, and at 290 lumens it sits in the same brightness territory as a low wattage halogen reflector.
How long is it rated to last?
Average life is quoted at 15,000 hours, which is a long stretch of evening use in a spotlight bar or a run of shelf lights.
Will colours look right under it?
Colour rendering is rated above 80 CRI, so timber, paint and fabric read naturally. It is a sensible choice over kitchen worktops and open shelving.
Is it suitable for a bathroom or outdoors?
It is rated IP20, so keep it to dry indoor positions. Zoned bathroom areas and anywhere exposed to weather need a sealed lamp and fitting.
What is the opal white finish for?
The opal face spreads the light across the front of the lamp rather than leaving a single glaring point, which helps when the lamp is visible in an open spotlight or cabinet fitting.
