GU10 LED bulbs are one of the most popular LED spotlights because they can be used in a variety of spaces. These bulbs are ideal if you are looking for bulbs that are long-lasting and easy to install. An additional advantage of GU10 spotlights is that they are very energy efficient and do not get as hot as traditional halogen spotlights. The bulbs have an average lifespan of 30,000 hours, which means they can last up to 13 years. Another advantage is that our GU10 spotlights are dimmable.
What are GU10 LED bulbs?
GU10 LED bulbs can be recognised by their GU10 fitting. Bulbs with a GU10 fitting have two pins at the bottom of the bulb, witha distance of 10 mm between the pins. They are clicked into the slots of the fitting with a quarter turn.
What are GU10 LED bulbs used for?
GU10 LED bulbs are common bulbs because they are widely applicable. You will find these bulbs in both homes and business environments. GU10 LED bulbs are often used in modern spotlights because they provide beautiful, focused light. Think, for example, of ceiling spotlights or spotlights in the bathroom. The bulbs are quick and easy to replace. This is much more difficult with a bulb with an integrated LED. When you use GU10 bulbs in recessed fixtures, you can easily replace the bulbs without removing the fixture from the ceiling. You only need to change the bulbs.
GU10 LED bulbs: low energy consumption
Our GU10 LED bulbs are high quality and have a very high light output. Take our 5.5 watt GU10 bulb, for example: this bulb has a light output of 400 lumens. The bulb requires very little energy to produce a lot of light. An incandescent bulb would need 40 watts to produce the same light output. So it's good for your wallet and the environment.
GU10 LED bulbs: extra-long lifespan
When you switch to GU10 LED bulbs, you benefit in several ways. One example is the number of burning hours. Standard halogen spotlights have a lifespan of around 2,500 burning hours. This is a completely different story with GU10 LED bulbs. These spotlights are known for their long lifespan. Our GU10 LED bulbs have a lifespan of 30,000 burning hours. With normal use of 6 hours per day, this means that the bulbs will last 13 years.
Are GU10 LED bulbs dimmable?
A frequently asked question is whether a GU10 LED bulb is dimmable. The answer is: yes, definitely! All our GU10 LED spotlights are dimmable as standard. This means that you can adjust the light intensity yourself and create the right lighting for every situation.
What light colours are available?
The light colour of the bulbs is expressed in Kelvin. The higher the Kelvin number, the cooler the colour. In our range, you will find GU10 LED bulbs in different light colours.
Which wattage should I choose?
The wattage of a lamp plays an important role in the lighting effect. Our range includes GU10 LED bulbs in various wattages. The higher the wattage, the brighter the lamp. So if you are looking for mood lighting, it is wise to choose a GU10 LED bulb with a lower wattage, such as 2.6 watts. If, on the other hand, you are looking for functional lighting, for example for office lighting, then a bulb with a higher wattage, such as 5.5 or 7.5 watts, is more suitable. All our GU10 LED bulbs are dimmable, so you can adjust the brightness of the bulb. In principle, you do not need to worry about the brightness of a bulb. If you are specifically searching for a bulb with a high wattage for good visibility, it is important to choose a GU10 LED bulb with a higher wattage.
Connecting a GU10 LED bulb
A GU10 LED spotlight is easy to connect. You can connect the bulb directly to 230 volts. GU10 LED bulbs work without external drivers and are therefore simple and can be used in many places.
