Product Description
The G E LIGHTING 43098 is a 2-pack of PAR30 long-neck directional LED bulbs rated at 12 watts with a 5,000 Kelvin daylight color temperature. Each bulb delivers 900 lumens and carries a diffused finish for smooth, high-definition light output. The 25-degree beam angle makes these well-suited for accent and task lighting applications. Rated for 15,000 hours of service life, they replace 75-watt incandescent equivalents and are fully dimmable on compatible dimmer switches. Maximum overall length (MOL) is 4.37 inches. These are sold as a boxed 2-pack.
These PAR30 bulbs are designed for residential and light commercial directional lighting installations. Typical applications include recessed downlights, track lighting heads, and display fixtures where a tight 25-degree beam and high color rendering are priorities. The medium base fits standard E26 sockets common in residential and commercial fixtures. California Title 20 compliance makes these suitable for projects requiring state energy efficiency certification in California.

Installation Notes
Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician or knowledgeable tradesperson following NEC guidelines and local code requirements. Power off the circuit at the breaker before replacing any bulb in an enclosed or recessed fixture. Verify fixture and dimmer compatibility before installation, as not all dimmers support LED loads. Do not exceed the fixture maximum wattage rating, even though this bulb draws only 12 watts.
