Megaman 11W Low Energy GLS Bulb - Bayonet - Dimmable

Product Description

Megaman Dimmerable Technology

These Megaman Fully Dimmable GLS Bulbs benefit from Megaman's proprietary Dimmerable Technology, allowing you to replace your current dimmer-switch light bulbs with a low-energy alternative.

There are, however, a few points to note before purchase:

Before dimming the light bulb needs at least 2 minutes "warm up" time on full power. Once at full brightness smooth dimming between 10-100% of its full brightness can take place.

These light bulbs are compatible with most electronic & digital dimmers for incandescent & halogen light bulbs but may not be suitable for touch or remote controlled dimmers.

Please note: Dimming to 10% of the light output depends on the

Specification of the dimmer.

Each dimmer will have a minimum & maximum range, for example Min: 60w to Max: 360w, which means incandescent & halogen total wattage should fall between these two values. However, with energy efficient light bulbs using less energy than standard bulbs you'll need to reduce both the Min & Max wattage on the dimmer by a factor of 6 on the minimum & 5 on the maximum to calculate compatibility.

For example:
Minimum load: 60W Incandescent & Halogen (60W divided by 6) = 10W energy efficient light bulbs

Maximum load: 360w Incandescent & Halogen (360W divided by 5) = 72w energy efficient light bulbs.

Malfunction or failure of the light bulbs may occur if the total wattage does not fall between the factored dimming wattage (Min: 10W to Max: 72W).

As well as costing less to run, these lamps also last up to ten times longer than regular light bulbs, meaning they need changing less often. See a return on your investment by saving on maintenance costs! Megaman Fully Dimmable GLS Bulbs boast a long 10, 000 hour lifespan.
