Anybody using these in track lighting indoors? If so, how have they measured up compared to halogens?

Hello Keith, In my opinion, using the lamp for lighting with an indoor water feature, this bulb out performs the halogen. Thought it might be lacking, could not have been more wrong . Better, more eye pleasing color, aggressive brightness output, no heat by comparison, much less electricity. Would never go back to a halogen for myself. I have a great deal of experience in many light sources, this lamp for me exceeds expectations, very satisfied. Hope your experience matches mine. Best of success in lighting.

I bought LE® 5W MR16 GU10 LED Bulbs, 50W Halogen Bulbs Equivalent, Not Dimmable, 350lm, Daylight White, 6000K, 38° Beam Angle, Standard Size, Recessed Lighting, Track Lighting, Spotlight, LED Light Bulbs and I think they are the same thing. I couldn't get them to work with my sensor switch. The switch can turn them on but won't be able to turn them off.

I would recommend more as well and would probably advise you to supplement these lights with another type of light. For instance I would not hesitate to use these because they are excellent for overhead lighting (when spaced properly), but I would add track lighting to really showcase work or provide more task lighting.

I used 4 strings of these in an event hall in lieu of using the super unattractive fluorescent hall lights. They were on for at least 6-7 hours with no problem. I actually think they are better suited for indoor use as they are not as sturdy as commercial quality outdoor string lights (they're good quality, the construction of them is just more akin to like.... The large bulb Christmas lights).

Check out GU10. It's the one used for track lighting. I would measure the mm distance between the bulb you have and then look at the specks of any GU10 bulbs online. My guess is that the prongs are 10mm apart, but I am not sure.

The MR16 LED listed is 320 lumens which is equivalent to what I was replacing as a 50W halogen. The difference is that the LED is more focused as a light beam and was brighter on my display floor that the halogen bulb. So overall, I saved a lot of energy and heat. More importantly, I was able to buy a few more track light fixtures and added two more LED bulbs for a much even/better light distribution on the floor area for the retail store. I hope that helps.

Light emitted is whiter than standard halogens, but still not pure daylight white. I believe the color temp on these bulbs is around 3100 vs around 2700 for regular halogens. If you seek pure daylight white, try PIAA Extreme White. PIAA's are considerably more costly.

Hello Mr. Curtis. I bought these a while back and found they make your headlights "whiter". They have a very light hint of blue. These ARE NOT even close to HID intensity. They are slightly brighter, but not significantly. I would try Phillips Crystal Vision bulbs. They are about as good for 35 rather than 50+. I bought them and had them burn out within several months after use... I'm not sure if it was something I did or if it was just a bad batch. A friend of mine also had some really good luck with ebay bulbs that were "XEON" or something like that.Here is how they looked in my car: http://www.cardomain.com/ride/3965245/2003-hyundai-accent/photo-gallery/ Hello Mr. Curtis.

I don't have any technical information on hand about the comparable brightness, but I can give you my opinion from using these every weekend for shows. At heir brightest, they are easily brighter than the normal 200 W lightbulb, but they can be dimmed smoothly through the range up to that level. They are bright enough that it is wise to avoid looking at them directly. The white color setting appears to be the brightest, so they can be run comfortably at a higher setting when you use a darker color like blue or red. The color setting can also be adjusted to get any variation of color you are looking for. I use eight across the front of my stage, and that is more than enough to light the stage and spotlight performers.

The colors have been fine on my cameras. I have been using them indoors with mostly fluorescent lights and some natural light through windows without any problems.

they work well for me. Moving the controller lights the writing and symbols up. They stay light for 30 seconds or so after they are lit up.

You're welcome. I know this because the older models used 12v T4 50w bi-pin halogens, but I removed the reflector and replaced it with an MR16, and they work fine. I was thinking about LED but bought several MR 16 bulbs on sale.

They are pretty low. They are not as bright as the halogen bulbs that they replaced. Don't have a way to test but I would say they are about 60% of a halogen bulb. I'm using them for landscape path lighting, the LEDs are adequate for that purpose.
