An Excellent MR16 LED light bulb is now in stock.

The new GeoBulb® MR16 will save you money and last a long time. This LED MR16 light bulbs uses just 3 watts of power and lasts up to 50,000 hours. The Geobulb® MR16 will save you energy and offer a good return on your investment. If you run a MR16 for 24 hours a day, seven days a week as found in some commercial installations it is possible to save about $200.00* over the retail and electrical cost a standard incandescent M16 bulb over five years.

*An incandescent or halogen bulb costs: 8736 hours in a year X 20 Watts X 5 (years) = 873,600 Watt hours (873.6 kWh) @ $.12 KW = $104.83 in electricity saving plus the cost of replacing four bulbs per year for five years (20 bulbs) @ $7.95 = $159.00 for a total cost of $263.83. Your savings will vary according to your local electricity costs. To find the cost in your area go to http://www.eia.doe.gov/cneaf/electricity/epm/table5_6_a.html.

The Geobulb® MR16 costs $49.95 and cost about $15.72 in electricity to run for five years for a total cost of $65.67. You could almost pay off the GeoBulb® in the first year, and you will then be putting money in your pocket as compared to running a halogen or incandescent bulb.

The new High Brightness, energy saving Geobulb® MR16 easily replaces conventional bulbs in indoor applications where a 20 Watt, 30 degree beam Halogen or incandescent bulb is used. New, high-quality materials, techniques and over a decade of white LED experience allow for a five-year limited warranty. You could be conserving precious resources and, for one of the first times, benefiting financially by changing a simple light bulb.

Many commercial and residential situations exist where small MR16 bulbs are the best option to display artwork and to set the right ambience. However, the vast majority of MR16 bulbs are hot Halogen or incandescent bulbs. Compact fluorescents do not factor into this small bulb market because of their inherent large size. The tiny size of an LED lends itself to small bulb applications like MR16 bulbs, allowing for compact, bright bulbs that consume very little electricity and generate little heat. The new GeoBulb® MR16 is a good choice to replace hot, energy guzzling 20-Watt MR16 bulbs. Up until recently, it was impossible to construct a High Brightness long lasting LED MR16 bulb. We have more experience building and testing LED light bulbs over a longer period of time than most companies.

It is smart to use energy as efficiently as possible. Our easy to get fuel resources are expected to start running out in a few generations. The Geobulb® MR16 is one of the best solutions to help extend our energy resources and you will be financially rewarded too because it is as easy as changing a light bulb. You will also help stop the burning of over 700 pounds of coal or an equivalent energy source to create electricity by using the GeoBulb® MR16.

To keep the warranty valid:

  1. They must be used in an open fixture. Good ventilation is required.
  2. The ambient room temperature must be 95° Fahrenheit (35° C) or below.

The GeoBulb® MR16 is dimmable but a Electronic Low Voltage type dimmer must be used. Damage may occur if the wrong type of dimmer is used. See below for examples**

How we calculated your Return On Investment (ROI):

Assumptions:

  • The Cool White GeoBulb uses three watts as compared to a 20 Watt halogen MR16.
  • The cost of a high-quality MR16 halogen bulb is $7.95.
  • The average cost of electricity in California is 12.46 cents a kilowatt
  • The bulbs run 24 hours a day 7 days a week. (You can calculate the savings for 12 hours a day by reducing your ROI in half).
  • The average life of a halogen bulb is 2,000 hours and you will have to replace it four times a year. You will not have to replace the GeoBulb®.
