Extended Product Information

FAQs

What type of bulb does this lampholder use?

This lampholder is designed specifically for MR16 bulbs with a G6.35 base.

Is this lampholder suitable for outdoor use?

The product description does not specify outdoor rating. It is best suited for indoor applications unless properly protected from the elements.

What is the benefit of the ceramic material?

Ceramic material offers excellent heat resistance, which is crucial for the longevity and safe operation of bulbs that generate significant heat, like many MR16 types.

Can I use a standard halogen MR16 bulb?

Yes, as long as the bulb has the G6.35 base fitting, it should be compatible.

What does 'SOLD PER PIECE' mean?

It indicates that the product is sold individually, not in packs.

Does this come with a bulb?

No, this product is for the lampholder only; the MR16 bulb is sold separately.

Troubleshooting

Bulb not lighting up

Verify the bulb is correctly seated in the G6.35 socket. Check that the power supply is active and wired correctly. Ensure the bulb itself is functional by testing it in another fixture.

Loose bulb connection

Gently adjust the lampholder contacts if possible, or ensure the bulb pins are straight and fully inserted into the socket.

Overheating concerns

Ensure adequate ventilation around the fixture. Confirm the bulb wattage does not exceed the fixture's rating. The ceramic body is designed for heat dissipation, but extreme conditions may require additional airflow.
