MR16 GU5.3 LED Spot 12V 5 Watt

DIMMABLE ON A REGULAR DIMMER.
*Please pay attention to the minimum load required by the dimmer.


1:1 Replacement for ~40W halogen spots. The warm light color (2500-2800K) and color rendering (CRI:75) easily match those of regular halogen lamps. Even if the lamp is turned on at full brightness, the warm color temperature remains. This is not the case with a halogen lamp, which becomes cooler white when turned on at full brightness. The energy-saving properties of this COB LED spot and the long lifespan make this the perfect replacement for halogen spots. Please look below for a simple savings calculation. This calculation assumes that the lamp is lit for 6 hours every day.

LED spot 5W: 5 Watts
Halogen spot: 40 Watts
Energy savings: 35 Watts or 0.035 kW
Yearly energy savings: 0.035 kW x 6 hours x 365 days = 76.65 kWh. (Kilowatt-hour)

Because electricity prices vary throughout the world, we will use the average price in the UK for this example, which is about £0.15 (€0.17) per kWh. With this electricity price, the yearly savings amount to £11.50 or €13.03 per lamp per year.

The average lifespan of this LED lamp is 30.000 hours, compared to 1.000 hours for a halogen lamp. Changing your lamps regularly is therefore a thing of the past! This especially comes in handy when lamps are in hard-to-reach places. The example above assumed the lamps were lit 6 hours per day, or 2190 hours per year. This means that in the above situation this lamp would have a lifetime of 13 years, saving £149 / €169 in electricity alone!

This lamp will earn back its cost multiple times.

A 30 day refund-policy applies to all our products, so you will receive a full refund if the product does not live up to your expectations. The warranty period on this LED lamp is 2 years.

Important: Be careful when using LED lamps in the same electricity group as older TL or PL lamps. Especially the older types or lamps that are near their end-of-life will emit a voltage peak throughout the electric wiring when they are switched on. These peaks will damage your LED lamps and ultimately burn them out! We recommend only using newer TL/PL lamps with electronic ballasts.

DIMMABLE
This lamp can be dimmed on a normal dimmer. Please pay attention to the minimum load required by the dimmer to function. Normal dimmers require a certain amount of electricity to flow through them to properly dim the lamps. Because LED lamps use very little electricity, it is possible that your dimmer is unable to dim only 2 or 3 LED lamps.
