track lite bulb replacement

So here is the latest............... I went to Lowes here in Az. They had a bayonet type plug in a LED bulb(twin pins) . I bought one to give it a try. It is a direct replacement for the hot halogen bulb. It took about 45 secs. to install. It puts out more light than the halogen bulb and I will go back tomorrow and buy two more. Cost is $21.40 ea.

Bulb is a: Utiliteck Pro 12V MR16 GU 5.3 indoor reflector. Brightness is 325 lumens and uses 7 watts.

It gives off absolutely no heat but is as bright or brighter than the halogen. My problem is solved for the track light.

Thanks for your info.

Jack
