Can i Use this LED Bulb in a Commercial Walk in Freezer?

Theoretically yes it should be possible to use your 8.5 watt tecnolamp bulbs in a freezer .led light bulbs technically are not limited to cold temperature use like most compact fluorescents are the only issue is if the low voltage rectifier circuit in the base of the lamp it may not work well in sub freezing temperatures I have read some limited technical specs and customer reviews about certain styles types or brands of l.e.d. bulbs not lighting or flickering in cold temps below 32 degrees but I do think this rare especially considering there are industrial and commercial light fixture manufacturers that produce flourescent style light bars that replace the flourescent tubes with individual l.e.d. elements and are designed to go in commercial grocery freezers and the like like the dairy freezer in most commercial grocery stores.I can't say anything more than just try and see if it works. I haven't had my l.e.d. bulbs long enough to give you a definitive answer .

these bulbs are not intended for use in enclosed can light fixtures. a statement on this is included on the product packaging

I have had this just over a year and haven't had to replace any lights but I did download the manual from the LG site. According to the manual (page 15) the freezer light can be replaced by removing the cover using a screwdriver and replacing with any 60 watt appliance bulb. The manual which you can download here, http://www.lg.com/us/support/refrigerators has a diagram for doing so. However, for the refrigerator, the manual states that: "This model has special LED interior lighting and service should be performed by a qualified technician."

I'm not aware of a product that would do what you ask. Assuming that the issue is excess heat, I went to 100 watt LED bulbs by Cree. They only require 18 input watts and are cool enough to touch while on. They are relatively expensive, but have a long service life and use considerably less electricity. They are slightly taller than incandescent bulbs, so if that is an issue, you will want to check dimensions before you buy. Website is www.cree.com.

I haven't tried that yet, but I don't see why not. Keep the led light low voltage but with plenty of lumen. I think the idea is for low heat. It will work. Make sure led bulb isn't oversized, the globe wont snap back on...the original bulb isn't very large.

It's designed as a nightlight or other dim type bulb. It would not work well in a Refrigerator. It's too dim & the LED array does not emit an even light.

it should work fine... but the seal isnt necessarily the best, therefore i recommend that you use a energy saving bulb instead of incandescent (less dangerous).

The LED will operate on AC. You can choose any model LED that will fit into your application.

I would say no. The individual LEDs of the bulb are exposed to the elements.

I am not sure because I haven't tried. i suppose you could but since I don't own any LED bulbs I cannot really answer.

We use ours inside so not sure. If rather bulb is in an in closed fixture and/or under the house' serves, it should be ok.

You have to contact the company. I only use them for interior remodeling. Some LEDs can't be used in a sealed outdoor light fixture because of heat build up.

We use ours indoors. Most bulbs for indoor use are not rated to withstand outdoor temps. Why don't you contact the distributer

No this is not an LED bulb, but no reason why you cannot use one. I notice there are more and more selection of LED bulbs now in the stores.

An LED bulb has an electronic circuit to regulate voltage/current to it's LED array. Excessive heat would likely be a bad idea. An oven can be set to over 400 F, higher in self cleaning mode - bad idea. Over a hot stove or in a microwave? Maybe. I may try it someday.

Unless the knob was a heat resistant non heat conducting plastic, glued on with heat resistant glue, I would not do it. This light is so small already that you'd have a hard time affixing such a knob. I'd replace the halogen bulb with an LED bulb, which I did. There are one or two manufacturers that make them small enough with the right base (MR-16), most are too big. The color balance on LED bulbs is different than halogen. There may now be a better variety of small MR-16 base LED bulbs than when I bought this.

I'm in Rhode Island. I use it indoors without issue. I have an 10-watt LED bulb in my back porch light and it works fine all-year. You will have issues with batteries is the cold. They produce less current when they are cold. http://batteryuniversity.com/learn/article/discharging_at_high_and_low_temperatures
