Wiltshire, United Kingdom (12th July, 2012) – The Lighting Superstore, a leading UK online retailer of home and garden lighting, is now stocking a range of retrofit LED bulbs, including the new BELL 5w GU10 mini dimmable LED bulb.

The Lighting Superstore have tried and tested various LED GU10 and GU5.3 spot light bulbs over the past few years, and have found that most fail to reach half of the quoted performance levels promised by the manufacturer. Some of the specifications used to advertise these products were found to be exaggerated and not representative of actual performance.

The leading interior and exterior lighting retailer came to the conclusion that as many as 90% of the models they tested were simply not good enough. When the ability to control the light level with a dimmer switch was factored in, the odds were shortened even further.

However, The Lighting Superstore has sourced what they believe is a viable replacement for the 50w halogen GU10 bulb: the 5w GU10 mini dimmable LED bulb from BELL (British Electric Lamp Ltd).

A spokesperson for The Lighting Superstore commented: "The BELL 5w LED GU10 bulb ticks all the boxes; offering what we believe is the first suitable replacement for the 50w halogen GU10 bulb. It can be controlled superbly via a standard dimmer switch, has a good light output, is well made and is now available to buy for a reasonable price on our website.”
