Overview

A 5 W GU10 bulb with a black body for dark fittings. It gives 505 lm of warm white light at 2700K, which puts it in energy class E, a class above the other GU10 bulbs we stock.

The 60° beam is wide enough for general lighting from a group of spots.

Questions and answers

How does it differ from the white version?

The body colour, and this bulb is a little brighter for the same wattage. Choose by the colour of your fittings.

Is it dimmable?

Faro does not list this bulb as dimmable.

Does it get hot?

LED bulbs run far cooler than halogen GU10 bulbs, though the body still warms up in use. Let it cool before handling.
