Available in both dimmable 12V bi-pin and E27 medium screw base versions, the ELED MR16 5W lamps are powered by 5 watts of high-output Nichia LEDs - the equivalent of a 50W halogen bulb. Yet they consume a maximum of 5 watts of power, so they will significantly reduce users' electric bills, providing a return on investment in a very short time, says the company.
Another bright spot for lighting users -- and the environment - is the LEDs' long life, rated at 40,000 hours, which will drastically cut lamp replacement costs and reduce the amount of waste going into landfills.
Both lamp-base versions are offered in Warm White (2,700K) and Neutral White (3,500K), and in choice of either 30° or 60° beam angle. This versatility, combined with their powerful output and the dimming capability of the bi-pin version, make the ELED MR16 5W lamps suitable for a wide range of applications - from offices and stores, to hotels and restaurants, and even private homes.
"As energy costs and environmental concerns have risen, more business operators and homeowners are finding that it makes sense to switch to an LED light source," said Eric Loader, director of sales for Elation Professional. "The trend will only continue to gain momentum in the future. Our ELED MR16 5W Series was designed to offer economically-priced, easy-to-use replacement white LED lamps that deliver superior light output and can fit a variety of applications, while delivering the cost-saving and environmental benefits associated with LEDs."
