Bioluz LED 10 Pack MR16 LED Bulb Dimmable 50W Halogen Replacement 3000K 7w 12V AC DC UL Listed High CRI

Lights were just what I needed.

At roughly $5 each, these MR16 LEDs are an amazing value!I have compared these against 20 watt halogen bulbs, 50 watt halogen bulbs and Green Creative Titanium LED Series 4.0 LEDs. My contractor price at lighting unlimited is $16/each for Green Creative Titanium LED Series 4.0 (Green Creative 40759 - 7W - LED - MR16 - 3000K ). These $5 Bioluz MR16 LED have a better color tone and better spread than the Green Creative. The Green Creative is almost slightly white/pink where as the Bioluz is closer to a true white (not warm white). I am saving $100 per 10 lights and honestly think these Bioluz have the best look.I have attached a photo to show you the color and look. These photos are taken at night in a 30 x 30 room with 14' ceilings. The lights in the background are TCP LED8R20D27K Dimmable 8W Smooth R20 - 2700K R20 base bulbs in the 4" cans. I can also highly recommend the TCP 8W if you are looking for something just slightly brighter than a normal 45 watt incandescent in your R20 base fixtures.... You will see the 4" can lights in the background (The TCP LEDs) are more warm yellow. The Bioluz MR16s will be more of a white halogen look. Again. They are the best 50 watt equivalent MR16s I can find. I consider them to be better than a standard 50 watt halogen. Great value.In this one room, we are going from 11 lights x 50 watts (550 watts) to 11 lights x 7 watts (77 watts). I will post updates if the bulbs burn out or I have problems.I've spent hours swapping and comparing lights so please click the link below if this review helps you save time or money.

I've worked with a lot of LED bulbs over the years, trying to make my lighting designs as energy efficient as possible. It can be very hit or miss with these bulbs. However, I am very pleased with these bulbs. Their color is bright and white... they definitely look good and do a great job showing things in their natural color. THeir temperature is 3000K, and it is accurate. 2700K bulbs have a little more yellow tint to them. But I like the bright white of these lights. HOWEVER, if you have regular bulbs in the room, or other light sources, there will be a noticeable difference in color. These lights are brighter and cleaner and white than most home lighting. (After all, a tremendous effort was put into making LED bulbs not have that blue-ish tinge that makes them look weird). These bulbs are also aesthetically pleasing -- they are a nice design and look good. My application has the bare bulbs exposed in a cable lighting system. I thought of using shades over the bulbs, but I like the look of just the bulb in the fixture. Finally, DIMMING... the bane of so many LEDs. These dim beautifully and have a wide range of lighting levels. Color temperature stays constant when dimming. Also, there is no flickering in these bulbs... they don't randomly do strange things by flickering like many bulbs do. There is a slight flicker when dimming, but minimal and acceptable. For reference, I have these installed in a Tech Lighting Kabel lighting system with an electronic transformer, connected to a Lutron wifi enabled dimmer.

I normally love these bulbs and have bought three ten-packs over the last five years. Only problem is the last shipment arrived loose in an Amazon plastic envelope (the Bioluz boxes are cheap and this one had completely broken into four separate pieces). Amazon just threw the Bioluz box into the bag in with no padding and one bulb had a bent pin. One bulb apparently escaped through a tear in the bag.After arranging the return, I decided to test the nine bulbs I received and every one was D.O.A. No light on either 12v AC or DC.I can't believe rattling around loose in the bag would have killed these (they're pretty solid) but the only other explanation is that somehow these were rejects, perhaps returned to Amazon by another buyer.The replacement ten-pack arrives tomorrow. Fingers crossed for ten good bulbs!!I'm reluctantly subtracting one star for Amazon's sloppy shipping, Bioluz's flimsy box and a shipment of dead bulbs. But the truth is, they are normally excellent replacements for the cheap crap most landscapers leave you with.Update: Ten perfect new bulbs arrived today, a day after the above review. I tested them all and will do the same with all future shipments.None of the past four years' worth have burned out and they seem to have a good CRI, which I will measure at some stage and report back on. Love the color too (3k) and brightness.Bottom line: these are really excellent value and quality.

All 10 mini pin bulbs worked as they should. So much better than halogen. They are bright and illuminate at a much cooler temperature, increasing the life span of the bulb significantly.

These LED MR16s finally work with our WAC JHT-809 track lighting heads we have had for 10+ years. We have 12 of them and at $40/head I was looking for some LEDs that put enough load on the transformer for the transformer to actually work.The latest version of the JHT-809 claims to need only 1W but I am sure our old ones have a higher load requirement. All the LED MR16s we tried over the years - and we did try 6 or 7 different manufacturers/models so far - did not light up at all when installed in the track heads. These do light up and can be dimmed reasonably well on top of it.They also fit into the track head - another problem we had with some of the models we tried. You have to leave the glass off but the retainer clip fits on top of these.The light produced by the LEDs is OK. There are some noticeable blue spots in the light projected onto a white wall but we can live with that.Only replaced three so far and letting them "soak" but ordered the larger set with 10 to be prepared for switching out the rest of the lights. Will update here if something changes.
