Say goodbye to hot, burnt-out halogen capsules. This LED bulb G4 2.5W (SKU LCB-G4-2.5W-30K, ordering code VIV-G4/2.5W/30/D) is the modern replacement for the little bi-pin capsule lamps hiding in your under-cabinet pucks, chandeliers, sconces, range hoods and display cases. People search for it as a G4 LED bulb, a bi-pin capsule, a 12V puck light bulb or simply an ampoule LED G4 — it's all the same tiny two-pin format, now built with LED technology. Pull out the tired halogen capsule, push in the LED, and your fixture keeps its original look while the light source becomes dramatically more efficient and far cooler to the touch.

The numbers are honest and easy to work with: 2.5W of LED power delivers 300 lumens and replaces a 30W halogen capsule, running on 12V with a standard G4 base. The 3000K colour temperature gives you that warm, inviting white that flatters wood, stone and skin tones, while a CRI of 80 keeps finishes, food and merchandise looking natural under close-up light. The 360° beam angle spreads light all around the capsule the way the original halogen did, so you don't get dark spots in a fixture designed for an omnidirectional source. It is a dimmable lamp (D) with a rated average life of 15 000 hours, backed by a 2-year limited warranty at 15 000 h, and it's cETLus listed. Compact dimensions — 0.52 in diameter by 1.7 in overall length — let it slip into the tightest housings. Operating temperature range: -20 °C to +40 °C.

This little capsule earns its keep everywhere small light is needed: kitchen under-cabinet puck lights, crystal chandeliers and wall sconces, range hoods, jewellery and bakery display cases, retail showcases, hotel accent fixtures and cabinetry millwork in Canadian homes and small businesses. Before you order, confirm your fixture runs at 12V through an LED-compatible transformer — older magnetic units built for halogen loads sometimes need a minimum load. Prefer a cooler, crisper white for a workshop or a modern kitchen? Take a look at the LED bulb G4 2.5W 4000K. Need the same warm tone in a bigger base? The LED bulb G9 4W 3000K is the matching choice. Order yours and start swapping capsules today.

A true drop-in for halogen capsules
The bi-pin capsule is one of the most common small bases in decorative and task lighting, which is exactly why this G4 LED capsule is such a satisfying upgrade. Part of the VIVID series of G9, G4 and MR11 lamps, it keeps the familiar two-pin geometry — 0.52 in diameter, 1.7 in overall length — so it slides straight into the sockets your existing fixtures already use. No rewiring, no new housings, no visual change to the fixture: only the light source changes. Because LEDs push very little forward heat compared with halogen, cabinet interiors, artwork, chocolates and delicate merchandise stay noticeably cooler, and you stop replacing burnt-out capsules every season.

Light quality you can trust up close
At 3000K, this lamp produces a warm white that feels residential and welcoming — ideal above a counter, inside a display case or in a chandelier where the source is partly visible. The CRI ≥ 80 high-lumen design renders wood grain, stainless steel, baked goods and fabrics naturally rather than washing them out. The 360° beam angle matters more than people think: many chandeliers, pucks and sconces were engineered around an omnidirectional halogen filament, and a narrow-beam LED would leave shadows and hot spots. This capsule lights all around itself, so diffusers and crystal still sparkle evenly.

Installation, transformers and dimming
This is a 12V lamp, so it always lives downstream of a transformer or driver. Confirm your fixture's supply before installing, and make sure the transformer is LED-compatible: magnetic units sized for halogen loads sometimes need a minimum load to start and hold steady, and a 2.5W lamp draws very little. If you plan to dim, pair it with a compatible LED dimmer and test a single fixture before committing the whole room or the whole showcase — behaviour depends on the dimmer and transformer combination. Handle the capsule with a clean cloth so the lens stays clear, and note that this G4 model is not rated for fully enclosed fixtures or damp locations; keep it in open or ventilated housings in dry interior spaces.

Where it fits, and the rest of the family
Think under-cabinet pucks in a kitchen renovation, crystal chandeliers in a dining room, wall sconces in a hallway, range hood lamps, jewellery and pastry display cases, retail showcases and museum-style accent fixtures. For the same lamp in a cooler, crisper tone, choose the LED bulb G4 2.5W 4000K. Fixtures on a different base in the same series include the Vivid G9 4W 450LM 27K dimmable and the LED bulb G9 4W 3000K, while the Vaso MR11 3W 200LM 30K GU4 glass housing covers 12V GU4 spot applications.
