I have 20W Bulbs and 12Volt system. Will these bulbs work on my system? Also would the be a energy savings?

The bulbs will be quite a bit brighter than yours and will use only four watts, so you will save 16 watts per bulb and get brighter light to boot.

These are sockets for 12v, MR16 bulbs used in recessed lights. The sockets get worn over a period of time and do not make good contact with the bulb and the result is a good lamp not lighting up. Generally the bulbs are rated 50w

They should work fine... These LED'S are a bit bigger then you standard bulb. Just make sure to get your positive and negative right or they won't work.

Uses the little fan style bulbs. Make sure there not energy efficient. I tried energy efficient ones and twouldn't work for some reason

I am using these on 11 outside solar lamps. BUT, I rewired the lamps with G4 sockets and ran 12 V low voltage wiring to them from a cheap 12V lawn transformer. So the answer is yes if you are willing and able to do that work. Is it worth it? I think yes, if you are willing and able. I liked the glass and metal fixtures in the old solar lamps, but the electronics and battery were junk. The fixtures however look as good as a Malibu set at a fraction of the price. And these 20W equivalent LEDs are so bright that they beautifully illuminate my driveway. I can provide more info if you wish.

As far as I know, all LED bulbs are the most "energy efficient" bulbs. These particular bulbs are NOT stamped "energy star" rated. But, trust me when I say, you will be very pleased with these bulbs if a bright, white light is what you are looking for. Mine are 75 watt equivalent.

The current rating is what matters as you can use these at 115V as well as 12V. My application was 360W at 83V so I was running around 4.3Amps. We had no failures in multiple days (probably 20 hours worth or operation). This socket was being heated by the bulb in my application much higher that what you are planning so probably it will take 50W at 12V with no problem.

if your existing bulbs are 20 watt as mine are they work great and the 12 pack i bought are a great buy and heat/ light up as any that came with my set

These lights will save on electricity as opposed to halogens. Also these lights do not give off as much heat as halogens. However these lights are not truly dimmable as compared to halogens. Look at the lumens to compare brightness. These bulbs are as bright as 50W halogens.

Sorry, i don't know. Mine are used with a 300w outdoor power supply that is on or off. So far the bulbs have worked perfectly

I agree with your first answer. I used the bulbs in my outdoor low voltage lighting. It's a warm bright white light without any of the concerns you expressed. The 5 watts rating is a cost saving and the consistent brightness of all the lights is great.

They should work. Absolutely ... very bright ... take a second or two to come on, but once on brighter than previous tubes. Plus I am saving 20% per month on my electric bill after replacing all of my old lights with LEDs.

DLJ, I've been running mine for quite sometime. They replaced 12v 4w incandescent bulbs and here is what I can say about these. The lumens is close to a 4w, the color is slightly cooler but still warm that people can't tell it's LED. The match up very nicely to 20w equivalent LED spotlights I put on the same system. And the beauty, not one bulb has gone out yet, running daily on a dusk timer for. 4, 6, or 8 hours depending on daylight season.

Hi Im not sure, maybe yes. Its necesary to check the watts value, if they are compatible, they work!

Ouse standard 4w 12v bulbs. However I would think any led that had the correct base and rated for 12 v yes would work. Not much help.

Yes. They use the same low voltage power supply as your existing fixtures. They come with an 11 watt bulb so if you have a really long run of lights you may want to use a lower wattage bulb. Otherwise use these 11 w. lamps closest to your power supply.

The ones I bought are 110v and work great. They are being used in outdoor lighting fixtures that are controlled by a timer. Turns out they do attract bugs, so different bulbs with a different color spectrum of light might be better for outdoors. Otherwise, no complaints and my electricity consumption has been cut from 240 watts for 4 hours a night to 24 watts for four hours a night, sweet. Good luck.
