220V LED MR16 Lamp: a mains-voltage LED for MR16 fittings
A 220V LED lamp in the standard MR16 format, built to bring accent light to spot fittings without the heat of halogen.
Mains-voltage accent light, simplified
MR16 spots have long been the go-to for accenting displays, artwork and counters. The trouble with halogen is heat and running load. The Nucleo 220V LED MR16 Lamp keeps the familiar format and aimed beam, while running directly from mains, so there is no transformer to size, place or replace.
Best use
Choose it for mains-wired MR16 fittings and for new accent layers in retail and hospitality.
Check voltage first
Check your fitting and supply voltage before ordering. Share details with Nucleo and we will confirm compatibility.
Why choose it
Standard MR16 format
The familiar MR16 lamp shape suits MR16-style spot and track fittings wired for mains voltage.
Mains-voltage operation
Designed for 220V mains fittings, so no step-down transformer is needed. Confirm fitting and holder type with Nucleo.
Direct-to-mains simplicity
Fewer components to specify: connect to a standard mains supply without a separate transformer.
Focused, directional light
The MR16 form is made for aimed light on shelves, artwork, counters and merchandise.
Cooler running than halogen
LED lamps give off far less heat than halogen, which is kinder to display items and ceiling cavities.
Easy lamp replacement
Lamp replacement is quick, but always isolate the power first and use a qualified electrician.

Suits recessed spots, track heads and decorative fittings built for MR16 lamps.

Specifying tips
Match the voltage

Aim with intent
Aim each lamp at a defined target. A few well-aimed spots look better than many unaimed ones.
