Why Choosing the Right LED Bulb for Enclosed Fixtures Matters
When upgrading your landscape lighting or indoor accent lighting, selecting the right MR16 LED replacement bulb is crucial. Not all LEDs are designed for enclosed fixtures, but the Axite LEDMR16FL27KWH90 MR16 6W LED Bulb is built specifically for fully enclosed landscape and interior lighting applications.
Unlike standard LED bulbs, enclosed fixture-rated LEDs like this one are engineered to handle heat buildup, ensuring consistent performance, longer lifespan, and minimal lumen depreciation. Whether you’re lighting up a pathway, garden, or an indoor display, this 6W LED MR16 bulb is designed to withstand harsh outdoor elements while maintaining optimal efficiency.
The Perfect Replacement for 20W Halogen MR16 Bulbs
One of the biggest challenges in switching to LED lighting is ensuring the right brightness and compatibility. Many homeowners and contractors worry that LEDs won’t match the light output of their existing halogen bulbs.
The Axite Lighting MR16 6W LED is the ideal replacement for 20W halogen bulbs, which is the most commonly used wattage/lumen output in both landscape and interior lighting. Here’s why this matters:
- Energy Savings: Get the same brightness as a 20W halogen with only 6W of power consumption—reducing energy costs by up to 70%.
- Improved Lifespan: While halogen MR16s typically last 1,000-2,000 hours, this LED lasts up to 25,000 hours or more.
- Consistent Light Output: The 2700K warm white color temperature mimics the soft glow of halogen, making it an excellent choice for outdoor ambiance and indoor accent lighting.
By upgrading to Axite’s enclosed fixture-rated LED, you’re ensuring better efficiency, reduced maintenance, and long-term cost savings.
Reliability & Longevity: Protecting Your LEDs with Surge Protection
While LEDs are known for their durability, voltage surges can shorten their lifespan. A power surge—whether from electrical grid fluctuations, lightning strikes, or faulty wiring—can damage LED drivers and circuits, leading to premature failure.
To maximize the lifespan of your Axite MR16 6W LED bulb, it’s essential to:
- Use LED-Compatible Transformers – If you’re replacing halogen bulbs in a low-voltage (12V) system, ensure that your transformer is LED-compatible to avoid voltage fluctuations.
- Install a Whole-Home Surge Protector – A panel-mounted surge protection device (SPD) safeguards all appliances and electronics, including LED lighting systems.
- Use Low-Voltage Surge Protectors – For outdoor landscape lighting, adding a 12V surge protection device to the transformer or junction box helps prevent power spikes from affecting LEDs.
By protecting your LEDs from electrical surges, you ensure that your Axite Lighting MR16 bulbs last their full rated lifespan, giving you consistent, reliable performance year after year.
