PAR16 LED Bulbs FAQs

What is a PAR16 LED bulb and where is it used best?

PAR16 is a compact 2-inch-diameter reflector lamp ideal for accent lighting, small recessed ‘mini-cans,’ and tight track heads.

Which bases and voltages are common for PAR16 LEDs?

In North America, PAR16s commonly use GU10 (120 V) or E26 medium bases; some 12 V versions exist. Match base and voltage to your fixture.

What beam angles are offered and how do I choose one?

Typical beams span 10–15° (narrow spot), 25–40° (spot/flood), and 60°+ (wide flood). Choose narrow for tight accents and wider for general wash.

How bright are PAR16 LEDs compared with halogen?

Quality PAR16 LEDs deliver ~300–600 lumens, replacing 35–50 W halogen with far less heat and energy draw.

Are PAR16 bulbs dimmable and which dimmers work reliably?

Many models dim with compatible triac or ELV dimmers. Check the manufacturer’s tested list to avoid shimmer at low levels.

What color temperatures and CRI should I pick for kitchens or displays?

Warm 2700–3000K suits living areas; 3500–4000K reads cleaner for task and retail; CRI 90+ preserves accurate color on art and merchandise.

Can PAR16 LEDs be used in enclosed fixtures or damp locations?

Only use in enclosed or damp fixtures if the lamp is rated for those conditions. Verify ambient temperature and spacing for heat dissipation.

Do PAR16 lamps work with track and recessed mini-cans?

Yes—short-body PAR16 LEDs are made for compact track heads and mini-recessed cans. Confirm overall length and trim clearance.

How can I reduce glare and hotspots from small PAR lamps?

Use snoots, hex-cell louvers, or frosted lenses to shield the source. Aim slightly off-axis to avoid direct view of the emitter.

What certifications and warranty terms should I look for?

UL/ETL listing, Title 20/JA8 or Energy Star where applicable, and a clear 3–5 year warranty indicate a vetted product.
