miguelvicente Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Hi people, Do you know if and where I can get GU10 hallogen lamps that have a beam angle narrower that 20º, like 18º or, even, 12º? Many thanks! Miguel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomo Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 I've not seen those in Halogen, but very narrow beam angles are fairly common in LED retrofit units so that might work if you don't need them to dim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adam2 Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 I do not believe that narrow beam GU10s exist, at least nothing like as narrow as 20 degrees, let alone 12.So called narrow beam GU10s can be found but are not actually that narrow. GU10 are of course mains voltage, and this means that the filament is too large too focus into a narrow beam without a relatively large reflector.The filament has already been made as compact as feasible, which explains why these lamps are so vulnerable to vibration. Can you fit remote transformers and use 12 volt MR16 lamps ?, these are available in narrower beam angles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rossmck Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 I've seen a 20º GU10 (non-LED) but never narrower other than in LED replacement. What are you actually trying to achieve, perhaps there's a non-GU10 way of doing it like, as adam2 suggested, fitting MR16s .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
