Features
One of the highest rated LED bulbs on the market from the Philips Master Value range and our personal favourite. Combining high performance with low cost; it's the Philips 4.9 watt GU10 LED lamp.
Offering a low energy alternative to a 50 watt halogen, it is dimmable as standard and available in 3 colour temperatures. With a light output of 355-380 lumens it offers great value from the worlds leading LED lighting manufacturer.
Designed to supersede the market leading 4.3 watt version which has become one of the most success GU10 LEDs of all time. The 4.9 watt version has a higher CRI (colour rendering index) of 90, which allows it to reproduce colours more accurately and consistently. Essentially a high CRI LED produces a better quality of light. This is a premium quality LED lamp at an affordable price.
Now available in a dim tone version, which mimics the dimming style of halogen and not only dims in brightness but also in colour appearance. Taking the colour temperature from 2700K at full brightness down to 2200K at its lowest brightness. Also available in 3000K warm white and 4000K cool white colour temperatures.

Specifications & Dimensions
Specifications Beam Angle SpecificationsEvery light source from an LED to a simple wax candle has a beam angle. A beam angle is a measurement of how the light is distributed. GU10 LEDs and recessed downlights have a fairly narrow beam of around 40 degrees, anything within 5 degrees is classed as a medium beam.
A wax candle or traditional light bulb would have a beam angle of 360 degrees as the light shines all the way around but is less intense.
Combing brighter downlights with wider 60 degree beams allows you to space them out further, reducing the total amount of lights needed.
More information about beam angles.
36 Degrees Brand Philips Lighting CRI SpecificationsCRI stands for Colour Rendering Index. It is a measurement of how well a light source can render the true colour of an object compared to natural light.
Rated out of 100, with an open flame or sunlight being a perfect 100. A light with 90 CRI and above would be classed as having high CRI, while 80 CRI is the standard for LEDs.
90 Ra Cap Type GU10 Colour Temperature SpecificationsColour temperature is a measurement of appearance. Measured in Kelvins, the lower the rating, the warmer the light appears. Choosing the right temperature can have a dramatic effect on a room.
2700K - Extra Warm White
Similar to a traditional incandescent light bulb or halogen. It has a more orange and warmer tone, with a ‘soft white’ appearance. Ideal for living rooms.
3000K - Warm White
Clearer, but still quite warm. This is the ‘new norm’ for general lighting and is the most popular option. If you’re unsure I’d recommend trying this one.
4000K - Cool White
Clearer, whiter and crisp; used in commercial locations including supermarkets. Cool white appears brighter than warm white as the LED is covered in less phosphor. It can make a room appear cold and clinical but used correctly (white walls etc) it can make a room appear cleaner and modern.

Product Questions & Answers
Can I just switch these with my halogen bulbs or do I need to change the transformer?Question by: Paul Westhead on 16 May 2023, 14:03These are GU10s so go straight to mains with no transformer.Answer by: Mathew Smith (Admin) on 16 May 2023, 15:12Do these dimmable mains bulbs need an LED ready dimmer module to replace the existing? I have a V-PRO dimmer module ready to use if necessary. ThanksQuestion by: David on 22 Oct 2024, 16:46Yes, the dimmer needs to be LED compatible or it will flicker particularly at low levels. The V-Pro works perfectly with these LEDs.Answer by: Chris Horridge (Admin) on 23 Oct 2024, 09:18 -
