Post Body

So my first mathmos bulb died a few weeks ago and already wasted 20 € on Amazon. The first pack of GU10s had a misleading long description stating that such bulbs were supposed to act like halogens but of course, they didn't as they were LED; totally my fault had to check better what I was buying.

Well, I went back to the store and actually found a proper pack of halogen GU10 35W 240v on Amazon and still, they don't work.

The lamp gets warmer but not warm enough as the old mathmos did and after 2 hours the wax didn't melt and I'm not sure the bulb will heat things more.
