4-Watt (25W Equivalent) MR 16 GU 5.3 LED Bulb, 300 Lumens, Warm/ Soft (3000K) - Non-Dimmable
Get a longer lasting, safe, and affordable alternative to standard MR16 GU5.3 light bulbs using this 4-watt MR16 GU5.3 LED Bulb from Monoprice!
This 12 VDC bulb uses only 4 watts of power, but produces 300 lumens of light energy at 3000K, equivalent to a 25-watt incandescent MR16 bulb. It uses the GU5.3 track lighting base.
This aluminum bodied, indoor bulb is 1.9" in diameter and 2.2" tall. It uses a Bridgelux chipset, is rated for up to 50,000 hours of use before failure, and carries a three year replacement warranty. The power factor is greater than 0.95.
It generates light in the 3000K range with a Color Rendering Index greater than 80, which generates the kind of soft and warm feeling that is perfect for most home lighting needs. This bulb is not designed to be dimmable. While it may be physically dimmed in some light fixtures, doing so can damage the bulb's internal circuitry and severely reduce its expected life span.
Monoprice warrants these bulbs for a full THREE (3) YEARS and will provide a new replacement for any bulbs that fail due to defects in materials or workmanship during the warranty period.

| | Bulb Failures |  Pros: The bulbs produce a clean, bright look, far better than the halogen bulbs I replaced. Better yet, their cost and a halogen bulb are comproble.
Cons: Of the 14 bulbs I have ordered, to date, four have failed.
For landscape lighting, given they are on 6 hours a day, I would replace bulbs about once a year. Mono price has replaced the failed bulbs immediately, without question. Even if they only last three years, I will have saved about $150. The same bulbs at my local lighting store are $20 each. I will accept a little inconvenience for the savings

| | Good price but short life | Pros: Low cost
Cons: Short life span
Encouraged by a competitive price and three year warranty, I ordered several for a track lighting fixture. Unfortunately, these led units have a typical failure mode. As their internal rectifier (required to produce DC for the led) begins to fail they start flickering and then fail entirely. Although energy is saved in use, their short life span makes older halogen bulbs a better buy.

| | Fantastic! | Pros: Great fit, nice light, good price, fast shipping.
Cons: None
These bulbs fit perfectly as replacements for halogens. The light produced is warm and pleasant, not at all like LEDs from a couple years ago. The price is unbeatable as well, with the local big box stores charging nearly 4x as much. Shipping was quick and reasonable too - what's not to love?
