MR16 5W led bulb

I’m very happy with these purple MR16 GU5.3 LED bulbs. They fit perfectly in standard MR16 landscape fixtures and worked immediately with my existing 12V low-voltage transformer, with no installation issues. The purple color is vibrant and evenly distributed, making the bulbs great for outdoor landscape lighting, trees, pathways, and holiday decor. Build quality is solid, the all-aluminum housing feels much more durable than plastic alternatives. Even after several hours of use, the bulbs remain cool and stable. Brightness is more than sufficient to replace higher-wattage halogen MR16 bulbs while using only 5W, which is great for energy efficiency. These bulbs are easy to retrofit, clearly labeled, and compatible with standard MR16 GU5.3 fixtures. Just make sure you’re using a proper 12V transformer, as they are non-dimmable. Overall, these are high-quality purple MR16 bulbs that perform exactly as described. Great value for landscape, decorative, and holiday lighting I would definitely buy them again and recommend them to others.

I purchased 3 packs of these to replace all my halogen landscape lighting bulbs. The bulbs are well protected in the packaging and are solidly built - they don't feel cheap at all. I used 14 of the 18 bulbs and all of them worked. The housing is metal with fins on the edge for heat dissipation. The bulbs I purchased are the 5W version which is rated as 35W equivalent for halogen. It's a bit brighter than I would have wanted considering I'm replacing 20W halogen bulbs (ideally I would have wanted an LED bulb around 3.5W to match the same brightness as my old 20W halogens but I couldn't find any on Amazon). The color temperature is pretty good too; slightly whiter than 2700K - I'd say it's closer to 3000K, but still looks good in the yard at night. I can't comment on longevity because I just installed them. Someone was asking if they are dimmable...they aren't technically dimmable in terms of being able to change their brightness, but they can take reduced power (down to 7W) and still maintain similar brightness. Overall, they seem like a good bulb and they work well. Hopefully they last a long time! [UPDATE] After 6 months of use in my outdoor landscape lights, I have still not had 1 of these lights burn out yet and I have 17 of them in use. I live in Canada, so they have survived the summer heat and so far in the early winter they have survived freezing point weather just fine. No complaints at all thus far.

I have been using the white 5W flood bulbs for about 5 years. I initially bought 12 of them for landscape lighting and liked that they had metal heatsinks, very important for heat dissipation in enclosed flood fixtures like ours. I have learned to lower my expectations with regard to the lifetime of LED bulbs, from experience with these bulbs and several other brands and types. I have had to replace most, if not all, the original 12 over the 5 year period, where they were operated an average of 6 hours per night. I estimate that these bulbs typically ran 9000 hours before failing. The failures ranged from total outage, to half of the 4 LEDS totally out, to all or some LEDS flickering dimly. As I say, I never take LED lifetime claims at face value. The real world is a harsh environment for relatively delicate LED light bulbs to live in.

Update: Seller quickly contacted me and offered to send replacement bulbs for the bad batch of bulbs, suggesting you can buy without hesitation and should you have a bad batch, the seller will try to make it right. I bought several boxes of the 4000k light color bulbs for landscape lighting. The positive is that it is a great match for a halogen bulb size and is very bright, but all the bulbs start flickering and die within a short time, frequently after just weeks or months.

Very good LED bulbs

The bulbs are easy to install and are an exact match for my older ones. The light is very bright (but not too bright) and makes my yard look great after dark.

We recently moved into a home with two very small can lights in the ceiling of a built-in china cabinet. One burned out so half of the cupboard in was shadows. I took out the burned out bulb, which I found to be a MR16, with which I had no experience. I took this bulb to Menards where the employee was very helpful. Since the bulb had no markings, we could not ascertain what the wattage was. The employee did locate a package of bulbs that looked just the same, but they were halogen. I decided to try what appeared to be an LED equivalent. When I installed the new bulb, I found that the new light was was much brighter and cool instead of a warm color, which created a harsh appearance to the crystal on one side of the cabinet. After spending a lot of time on Amazon reading up on the warm to cool range and the conversion of halogen to LED as far as strength, I began to search for a product that would fit the can and produce a light similar to the original still burning in the other side of the cupboard ceiling. Though I found other less expensive options, I decided to purchase these Alide bulbs, which were listed to provide the equivalent of a 20W-35W halogen. Between the information provided by the seller and helpful reviews, these bulbs seemed to be the best choice for my cupboard. After I received the bulbs and installed one, I was very happy. Looking into the cupboard, these LED lights provide a complimentary tone and are bright without being glaring. I would guess the halogen bulb that I replaced was a 20W. The one still in the cupboard burns warmer than the LED. They seem to be expensive, but I got the effect I wanted so it was worth the cost to me.

It took me hours of research before I decide to make this purchase. It's quite difficult to get a quality MR16 outdoor landscape light that can tolerate the AZ weather. I was concerned because the package says the light bulbs operates up to 40 degree C, which is only approximately 104 degree F. That's just not enough for Arizona. During summer time, we will have to deal with monsoon, dust storm and extreme heat at 119 degree. In short, I bought it and all the lightbulbs survived all the above. I am very satisfied with my purchase. I also want to thank all of those who responded to my questions on Amazon as they helped my purchasing decision. I only have one minor complaint - I ended up purchasing two packages, and one arrived pretty beat up...so bad to the point that I wasn't sure if the product is damaged. It's not shipping's fault. Package itself needs improvement, period. Otherwise, this is a quality item at a reasonable price. UPDATE - It turned out that Amazon shipped me a returned box instead of new. This is somewhat taken care of. The lightbulbs still worked great after a few thunderstorms, so they are strongly recommended.

These bulbs are awesome! A lot brighter than I was expecting and the light reaches the top of a 25ft tree! Very pleased with the color and brightness! Highly recommend.

will send a review when I install them but it may not required as I am sure all will fine no worries at my end thank you

Good quality

The bulbs are great. They work well and brighten our basement playroom and office. They have a nice warm colour. I am no sure of longevity yet (just installed them) but overall, they seem very well built. I fully recommend these.
