Built to last, built to look goodThis
PAR38 LED flood bulb uses solid-state LEDs behind a glass lens engineered for even light distribution — no hot spots, no ringed edges, just a clean 40° beam. The reflector body handles thermal management so the lamp runs cool enough to sit near fabrics, artwork and finished millwork, and the black finish reads well inside dark baffle recessed cans and black track heads where a white lamp would stand out. Average life is rated at 25,000 hours, which means far fewer ladder trips in stairwells, vaulted ceilings and commercial spaces.
Light quality you can actually seeThe
5CCT selectable switch (27/30/35/40/50K) is the feature that saves projects: set the tone on the lamp itself and match the fixtures already installed in the same room, instead of stocking five different bulbs. With a CRI of 90+, colours stay honest — hardwood floors keep their warmth, paint samples look like the chip, and merchandise, food and skin tones don't turn flat or grey. At 1400 initial lumens from 16 W, you get flood-lamp punch with a fraction of the draw of an old halogen PAR38.

Installation and compatibilityCut power at the switch or breaker, let the old lamp cool, then thread the
E26 screw base in snugly by hand. Set the colour temperature switch before you install, especially in deep cans where you can't reach it afterward. On a
dimmable circuit, confirm the dimmer is rated for LED loads and keep the lamps on a channel together to avoid flicker or drop-out at the low end. Because the lamp is not rated for enclosed fixture application, keep it out of sealed glass jars and gasketed globes; in open cans, gimbals, track heads and open outdoor flood brackets it's right at home. The wet location rating covers soffits, covered entries and exposed eave floods, so the same bulb works inside and out. Check the M.O.D. of 4.8 in and M.O.L. of 5.31 in against tight trims before ordering in volume.
Where it works and what's in the fileThink 9- to 12-foot ceilings in living rooms and open-plan kitchens, gallery walls and fireplace surrounds, restaurant dining rooms and bar backs, retail displays and salon stations, garages, workshops and warehouse offices, plus house-front and driveway floods. For smaller trims and lower ceilings, the same series scales down with the
LED bulb PAR30 12W 5CCT and the
LED bulb PAR20 7W 5CCT; for lamps, sconces and ceiling fixtures on the same job, add the
LED bulb A19 15W 4000K or decorative
LED bulb B10 5W. The full technical PDF spec sheet for LCB-PAR38-16W-5CCT-BK is in the Documentation tab with the complete PAR series table.
