SAL GU10L550TC LED GU10 Lamp 6W 240V Tri-CCT - Non-Dimmable

Description

6W GU10 LED. Three colours. Plug-and-play halogen replacement — 88% energy saving.

The SAL GU10L550TC is a 6W non-dimmable LED GU10 lamp with selectable colour temperature (3000K / 4000K / 6000K), a frosted polycarbonate lens, poly-covered aluminium body, GU10 twist-lock base, and a 50° flood beam — designed as a direct LED replacement for traditional 50W halogen GU10 lamps in Australian residential recessed downlights, track lighting, surface spotlights, and display lighting. Operating directly on 240V AC mains with an integral LED driver (no external transformer required), the GU10L550TC delivers up to 600 lm at 4000K from a compact 50mm x 60mm form factor that drops directly into any standard GU10 lamp holder.

Direct 240V GU10 Drop-In — No Transformer, No Hassle

Unlike the 12V MR16 GU5.3 lamp that requires a separate 12V electronic transformer, the GU10L550TC operates directly on 240V AC mains with an integral LED driver. When replacing existing 50W GU10 halogen lamps in standard Australian downlight fittings, the replacement is a simple lamp-for-lamp swap: switch off the circuit, remove the old GU10 halogen (push in, quarter-turn anti-clockwise, pull out), set the CCT on the new lamp with power off, insert the GU10L550TC (push in, quarter-turn clockwise), and restore power. This lamp replacement does not require a licensed electrician.

Selectable CCT — 3000K / 4000K / 6000K.

A selector switch on the base sets the colour temperature before installation with power off: 3000K Warm White for a warm, inviting ambience in residential living areas, dining rooms, bedrooms, hospitality, and retail; 4000K Cool White for kitchens, bathrooms, offices, and general-purpose commercial spaces — the most popular CCT for Australian residential and commercial GU10 downlight applications; and 6000K Daylight for retail display lighting, commercial offices, and applications where maximum colour clarity and visual acuity is required.

50° flood beam — comfortable general ambient downlighting.

The 50° beam angle is a medium flood distribution — slightly wider than the 38° spot of an MR16, providing a broader illumination cone suited to general ambient downlighting in residential rooms, commercial spaces, and retail environments. Multiple GU10 downlights with 50° beams spaced appropriately across a ceiling create overlapping pools that combine for comfortable general illumination throughout the room.

Q: What is the difference between GU10L350TC and GU10L550TC?
A: Both are SAL GU10 TC LED lamps with selectable CCT (3000K/4000K/6000K), GU10 base, 50° beam, non-dimmable, IP20, 240V, double insulated, and 50mm x 60mm dimensions. The GU10L350TC is the lower-output variant at 4W actual power, delivering 360/400/380 lm. The GU10L550TC (this product) is the higher-output variant at 6W, delivering 500/600/550 lm. Choose GU10L550TC where more light output is required.

Q: What is the difference between a GU10 and MR16 lamp?
A: Both are 50mm diameter reflector lamps. The key difference is voltage and base: a GU10 (this product) is a 240V mains lamp with a twist-lock base — no transformer required, connects directly to the 240V circuit. A MR16 GU5.3 is a 12V bi-pin lamp that requires a separate 12V electronic transformer. GU10 systems are simpler to install and maintain; most Australian residential downlights installed from the late 1990s onward use GU10 mains fittings.

Q: Is this lamp dimmable?
A: No — the GU10L550TC has a non-dimmable integral LED driver. Connecting to a dimmer switch will cause flicker, buzzing, or driver damage. For a dimmable GU10 LED option, see the SAL GU10LA750 trailing-edge dimmable GU10 lamp.
