Small base, big light: the G9 LED bulb from LED MONTREAL packs real brightness into a capsule the size of your thumb. Often searched as a G9 bi-pin bulb, G9 capsule, halogen replacement capsule or simply "little G9 light bulb", this model (SKU G93W2835) uses 45 Epistar 2835 SMD LEDs inside a solid G9 casing, fully covered in plastic for a clean, finished look. It's the direct swap for the hot little halogen capsules hiding in your chandelier, vanity light, wall sconce, pendant, range hood, under-cabinet fixture or accent lamp — same two-pin base, far less heat, no more bulbs burning out every few months.

Each bulb draws only 3 W and delivers 300 lumens with a 360-degree beam angle, so light spreads evenly through glass shades and crystal arms instead of firing in one direction. The CRI 80 rating keeps skin tones, wood and fabrics looking natural — a real plus over a bathroom mirror or a dining table. Choose warm white 3000K for a cozy living-room glow or cool white 6500K for a crisp, modern feel in a bathroom or workspace. The clear lens, plastic coating and base measure 44 mm long (49 mm with pins) by 17 mm wide, so the bulb slips into tight enclosures, and it runs on standard AC110-130V household power. Important: this bulb is not dimmable — never connect it to a dimmer, as dimming will permanently damage it.

These little capsules shine everywhere Canadians already use G9 halogens: condo chandeliers, bathroom vanities, hallway sconces, kitchen pendants, hotel rooms, salons, boutiques, restaurants and office lobbies. Because they run cool and sip power, they're perfect for fixtures with several sockets where changing bulbs means pulling out a ladder. For residential and commercial projects alike, buy a few extras and re-lamp the whole fixture at once — the colour stays consistent from arm to arm. Check the technical sheet in the Documentation tab, pick your colour temperature, and give that tired chandelier a second life.

Built around Epistar 2835 chips
What makes this G9 LED bulb different from a no-name capsule is what's inside: 45 x 2835 SMD LEDs from Epistar, arranged around the body and sealed behind a clear lens. The plastic coating and base wrap the diodes completely, so there's no exposed circuit board and no glass to shatter when you're twisting the bulb into a tight chandelier arm. At 44 mm long (49 mm with pins) and 17 mm wide, it keeps the compact silhouette of the halogen capsule it replaces, which matters in fixtures with small glass shades or open sockets where the bulb is part of the look.

Light quality you can live with
The 360-degree beam angle is the detail people notice first. Many cheap G9 retrofits throw light only forward, leaving dark shadows in the upper half of a shade; this one lights all around, the way a halogen capsule always did. With 300 lumens per bulb and a CRI of 80, a four- or six-light fixture gives you a comfortable, even wash of light with honest colour rendering. Warm white 3000K suits dining rooms, bedrooms and hospitality spaces where you want that soft, golden halogen feeling; cool white 6500K is the choice for bathrooms, makeup mirrors, garages and workshops where you want maximum visual clarity.

Installation and electrical notes
Installation takes seconds: cut the power, let the old halogen capsule cool, pull it straight out of the two-pin socket and push the LED bulb in until the pins seat fully. No wiring, no driver, no transformer — the bulb runs directly on AC110-130V line voltage, the standard in Canadian homes and businesses. The one rule to respect: this bulb is not compatible with dimmers. Connecting it to a dimmer circuit, even at full brightness, will permanently damage it, so either replace the dimmer with a standard switch or choose a dimmable bulb for that circuit. In a multi-socket fixture, replace every capsule at the same time and with the same colour temperature so the whole chandelier reads as one consistent light.

Where it works and what's in the Documentation tab
Think of every fixture that still uses a little two-pin capsule: crystal and modern chandeliers, bathroom vanity bars, wall sconces in hallways and stairwells, mini pendants over a kitchen island, picture lights, display cabinets, range hoods, desk and floor lamps, plus commercial spots like hotel corridors, restaurant dining rooms, hair salons, boutiques and reception areas. Because each bulb pulls only 3 W, a six-light chandelier that once burned hot now runs cool and quiet on a fraction of the energy, using up to 80% less than the halogen capsules it replaces.
