A flat design that changes everything
Traditional G4 halogen capsules throw light in every direction, which means half of it bounces around inside the fixture instead of landing on your countertop. The Flat G4 LED bulb from LED MONTREAL flips that logic: its LEDs sit on one flat face, so the output is concentrated toward a single direction. The board is uncoated plastic, the light source is 6 x 5050 SMD LEDs with an Epistar chip, and the whole thing measures 26 mm long (37 mm with pins) by 23 mm wide — small enough to disappear into shallow puck housings, cabinet modules and recessed trims where a bulky bulb simply won't close.
Light quality and colour options
You choose the ambiance. Warm white 2800-3200K delivers 90 lumens and mimics the soft amber feel of the halogen you're replacing — perfect for living spaces, boat cabins and display shelving. Cool white 5500-6500K pushes 180 lumens for a brighter, whiter light that's better suited to food prep, workshops and task areas. The 180-degree beam angle spreads that output broadly, so a row of bulbs under a cabinet blends into a continuous band of light instead of a series of bright dots.

Electrical, dimming and installation
This bulb runs on 12V DC only. Before ordering, confirm what your fixture or transformer actually outputs: many older halogen under-cabinet systems and some low-voltage tracks are AC, and putting a DC bulb on an AC circuit will damage both the bulb and the fixture — damage the warranty does not cover. Vehicle, RV, motor home and marine circuits are natively DC, which makes them an ideal match. Installation itself is refreshingly simple: cut the power, let the old halogen cool, pull it straight out of the G4 bi-pin socket and push the flat capsule in, flat face pointing where you want the light. Because it's dimmable, you can pair it with a DC dimming setup on the 12 volt side to fine-tune brightness in a bedroom, a cabin or a display case.
Where it earns its keep — and documentation
Think kitchen under-cabinet modules and range hoods, bathroom vanity pucks, retail display cases and shelving, camper vans, trailers, motor homes and boat interiors. At 1 W per bulb, replacing a set of halogen capsules cuts your draw dramatically — a real advantage when you're running off a battery bank or a small 12V supply, and a welcome reduction in heat in enclosed cabinetry. Homeowners, contractors and small business owners across Canada use these to refresh existing low-voltage lighting without touching the wiring. The full technical PDF (FLAT G4 LED BULB DIMMABLE) is available in the Documentation tab so you can verify dimensions and specs against your fixture before you buy.
