Luce Bella GU10 LED 420lm Daylight 6W 36° Globe - 4-Pack $2 + Delivery ($0 C&C/ In-Store/ OnePass) @ Bunnings

490

Need to replace the GU10 at home and found the price for 4 pack is the same price as 2 pack . Not sure what does the 36 degree or 60 degree mean, but looks a good deal

    Degrees is the angle of light that it can disperse to, I'm guessing.

  • +5

    Fine if you are not covering a wide area…but probably not great for a room if you need to brighten up the whole place.

  • I was happy to find these for this price a while back, but I have had 3 get really dim after just a few months use, shame because I have about 20 of them in my house now.

    • +1

      On the upside it was 50c each and in most fittings changing gu10 is easier / neater than changing a plug top integrated downlight.

    • +2

      A lot of these downlight fixtures are poorly ventilated so with these cheap LEDs the ballast heats up and that kills the thing. 20 bucks says you'd never get anywhere near the rated life in like, 90% of fixtures not specifically designed for LEDs.

    Ugh 6500 K

    • +7

      Perfect for those industrial warehouse and operating theatre looks.

        It really brings out the floor to ceiling subway tiles in the bedroom.

  • How much is normal price? 2 bucks?

    • Going off the 60degree 4 pack, I assume it was $12

    • If I recall correctly, Luce Bella have always been this cheap. The reviews on their other LEDs are not very encouraging.

      • Another one of Bunnings' junk home brands. Osram stuff seems to last much longer under the same conditions.

        • Yes i have osram in my place and they seem good value for money @ $16 for 4 LEDs

    36 degrees is narrow beam, 60 is moderate and 90+ is wide.
    6500K produces a cold, blue-tinged white, with 5000K being neutral, 4000K neutral-warm and 3000K warm yellow light.

    • Aside from crappy stuff from Amazon/ebay/temu, where can you get 90°+ globes from? I've only seen reputable brands do up to 60°.

      • 90d you could probably emulate by popping out the factory lens, and replace with a circle the same size of disused and clean milk bottle, silicone in place if required

      • +1

        Tends to be the larger, dearer, globe + inverter combo ceiling LED downlights.
        I'm not aware of any that will drop into an existing housing.

    • ALso if you are particular, even 3000k although warm, may not be very high CRI. Sometimes it's <70 CRI vs >80-90 etc. If it's <70 sometimes it can have a green tint and make skin colours look interesting.

  • 70 lm/W is not very efficient though is it. I guess GU10 is harder to find (most of the high efficiency bulbs seem to be Edison screws, I guess that's on the manufacturers) but the ones that do >120 lm/W are driven at lower voltages and would last twice as long. I think that's worth spending a little bit extra (though for a 4 pack $2 is very cheap).

  • Low lumens, narrow beam, cold temperature, less common fitting. There's not much going for these lamps other than the price.

  • The reviews don't seem great.

  • I bought these last week, they have a high pitched buzzing noise.

    • Do you have them on a dimmer

      • +1

        nope.

        I have used other brands without problems

  • FWIW I grabbed a 2-pack to replace the aging halogen bulbs in my rangehood. For this purpose they seem great. Obviously can’t comment on longevity but not expecting much. Colour temp is fine for this use case.

  • They have MR16 packs for $2 also, for 12V applications.

  • +1

    Had these or the mr16s. They flickered. Returned them unfortunately.

    • Same.

    • same
      Their 90mm downlights are so dim too

  • +1

    Important to note is that Luce Bella is considered one of Bunnings "crap & unreliable" brands. If you want something quality, go for Philips or Osram (also known as LEDVANCE)

    • +1

      Agreed, same with Mirabella light bulbs.. cheap but doesnt work for my apartment. Use Phillips ever since, though they are more limited (only sold in Bunnings or some specialist stores)
