Troubleshooting
Bulb does not light up.
Check that the power is on and the bulb is correctly seated in the GU10 socket. Verify the circuit breaker is not tripped. Test with another known working bulb in the same fixture.
Light flickers when dimmed.
Ensure you are using a compatible LED dimmer switch. Some older dimmer models may not work well with LED technology. Check the bulb's compatibility with your dimmer or consider upgrading the dimmer.
Color rendering does not seem accurate.
Verify the bulb's Ra97 rating. Ensure the light is not being influenced by adjacent light sources with different color rendering properties. Check for any color filters or coatings on the fixture that might alter the light.
Bulb fails prematurely.
Confirm the bulb is not used in an enclosed fixture that causes overheating, unless specified as suitable. Ensure the input voltage is within the specified range (220-240V). Check for any power surges or instability.
