Spotlights

[whistonian]

My caravan has a stainless steel light fitting with 3 adjustable spotlights.The markings on the bulbs are 50watt GU10.my question is are they Incandescent,halogen or LED bulbs....They do get very hot which makes me think that they are Incandescent bulbs.
PS. other markings are MM30469 and 706GLP which means nothing to me.

I have Halogen GU10 but not sure if they all are. May be here if you can identify

Incadescent bulbs. LED bulbs have a much smaller wattage.

Thanks Emeritus,they do look similar,but unfortunately all types appear to look similar.

Halogen. You can replace them with LED 7w but make sure they're WARM white.

Go for the LED ( 7W, minimum ) , they use much less electric and are much cooler when on, changed mine to LED now. Not cheap but worth it, for my liking the old halogen ones got much too hot. They were and are probably safe but not to my liking, I would never go out leaving a halogen bulb on.

Thanks everyone I will change them for LED's.

Halogen.... http://www.screwfix.com/c/electrical-lighting/gu10-bulbs/cat2690014

You can get replacement LED bulbs for these fittings but they are very expensive. I thought of changing over but the money involved was far too much.

Actually, now I have had a look, they aren't too exPensive after all, if these are the ones you need :::

Just checked again...these are not the same fitting as yours, so you will have to change the bulb housing as well. Which is probably why I abandoned changing my caravan bulbs last year.

Why has best answer been given to the one which was mostly incorrect?

It's a disgrace.

(Why has best answer been given to the one which was mostly incorrect?)

Because at the time I thought it was informative and correct. As you can see I have now changed it.
