MR11 LED Lamps

FAQs

What are MR11 lamps?

MR11 lamps are small-sized halogen bulbs or LED light bulbs with two pins that measure 1.375 inches (35mm) in diameter. They are commonly used in track and accent lighting due to their compact size and focused beam angle.

Are MR11 lamps energy-efficient?

MR11 LED lamps are highly energy-efficient compared to traditional MR11 lamps. LED bulbs consume less power, meaning lower electricity costs, a longer lamp life and reduced need for maintenance over the bulb's lifespan.

What is the difference between MR11 and MR16 lamps?

MR11 lamps are slightly smaller than MR16 lamps at 1.375 inches (35mm) in diameter. MR16 lamps have a diameter of 2 inches (50mm), which gives them a wider beam angle for illuminating larger areas.

Can I use MR11 lamps in a track lighting system?

LED MR11 lamps are the most popular choice for bright and reliable track lighting. They are typically designed to accommodate a GU4 or G4 base but make sure to check your track lighting system before installation.

How do I know which MR11 lamp to choose for my specific lighting needs?

Important factors to consider when choosing your MR11 lamp are the colour temperature, such as warm white or cool, the beam angle and the number of lumens available to determine brightness.

Can MR11 lamps be used for accent lighting?

MR11 are ideal for accent lighting due to their small size and focused beam angle. They are often used to highlight specific areas or objects such as reception areas, retail displays and artwork.
