MR16 fitting
An MR16 fitting is a commonly used fitting for spotlights, primarily designed for low-voltage lighting (12V). This fitting is frequently used in accent lighting, ceiling spotlights, recessed lighting, and garden lights. The MR16 fitting uses two pins spaced 5.3 millimeters apart, ensuring a stable and secure connection. Its compact size and high light output make this fitting popular in both residential and commercial spaces.
One of the key benefits of an MR16 fitting is its ability to create focused lighting, making it ideal for illuminating artwork, retail displays, or specific areas of a room. MR16 lamps are available in different beam angles, providing flexibility in light distribution.
While halogen lamps have traditionally been used for MR16 fittings, LED alternatives are increasingly replacing them. MR16 LED bulbs consume significantly less energy and have a longer lifespan, reducing energy costs and maintenance. Installing MR16 lamps typically requires a transformer to lower the voltage, enhancing the safety and durability of the system.
