Eveready LED GU10 Bulb, 3W, 250 Lumen, Warm White 3000K

This Eveready LED GU10 bulb gives 250 lumens of soft 3000K warm white light from just 3.1W, making it a low-energy, twist-fit replacement for an old halogen GU10 spotlight. It runs directly from standard UK mains with no transformer or separate driver needed, and it's a non-dimmable bulb, so it's best suited to a standard on/off GU10 fitting rather than a dimmer circuit.

What this bulb is best for

3000K warm white gives a cosy, inviting glow closer to traditional halogen lighting than a cool white bulb. It suits living rooms, bedrooms, hallways, and dining areas where a relaxed atmosphere matters more than bright task lighting. At 250 lumens it's a lower-output bulb, so it's better suited to accent or secondary lighting than as the sole light source in a larger room.

How to fit it

1. Switch off the power at the wall or consumer unit before changing any bulb
2. If replacing an old bulb, let it cool down fully before touching it
3. Twist the old bulb anticlockwise to release it from the GU10 fitting
4. Line up the two pins on the new Eveready GU10 bulb and twist clockwise until it locks into place
5. Restore power and test the light. No transformer or driver is needed for this LED GU10
