Does Bunnings stock these 5 cm downlights or compatible with EXPO MR16?

Hello

 

Just moved into a new home with these ceiling lights. Does Rothwell stock these, or anything compatible?

Thanks.image_2024-11-05_054940604.pngIMG_20241105_053814.jpg

Re: Does Bunnings Rothwell stock these 5 cm downlights or compatible with EXPO MR16?

Hi @LorenClayton,

 

The range of halogen globes is being phased out to be replaced with more energy-efficient LED globes. Bunnings Rothwell does not carry a 12v 50w halogen globe like you're holding. There are replacement LED globes that will fit your light, such as the Osram MR16 LED 520lm Daylight 5.5W 12V 60D Downlight. However, they will throw a slightly different shade of light, so it would be best to replace all the globes in the area for consistency. If you have a dimmer, ensure you purchase LED globes that are suitable for dimming. The Electrical team member will be able to assist you with selection.

 

I note you've added a screenshot of a 20W globe. That is significantly dimmer than the 50W globe you have. If you do want a dimmer globe, the store still carries the Nelson MR16 Halogen 20W Tungsten Dichroic Halogen Globe.

 

Please let me know if you have any questions.
