Frequently asked questions

• Will it fit any 230 V GU10 spot?

  Yes — it has a standard GU10 base and runs straight off 230 V mains, with no transformer or driver, so it swaps the old bulb one for one. Just mind shallow recessed spots: the smart bulb is 58 mm tall and 150 g, a little more than a halogen GU10, so check the clearance behind the fitting.
• Which Zigbee hub do I need for it?

  The bulb is Zigbee 3.0 and needs a coordinator — a Zigbee 3.0 gateway. As a universal Pro model it is not tied to one brand: it works with SmartThings, a Tuya Zigbee hub (id15 in the catalogue) or a Zigbee coordinator for Home Assistant. Without such a hub the bulb cannot be controlled smartly.
• How does it differ from its MR16 sibling, the GL-S-014P?

  The GL-S-006P is the GU10 version, powered directly from 230 V mains, so it needs no transformer. The GL-S-014P is the MR16/GU5.3 version on 12–24 V, which needs a transformer/driver. Choose by the base of your existing fittings: GU10 on 230 V — this bulb; MR16 with a transformer — the GL-S-014P.
• What colour and white range does it cover?

  It has RGB with 16 million colours plus tunable white across the full 2200K–6500K range, so the same bulb gives a warm evening yellow, a cool daytime white and a coloured scene. At 5 W it produces 400–500 lm on white, with a 30° accent-spot beam and CRI Ra>80 colour rendering.
• Can I use it in a bathroom or on a terrace?

  No. The bulb is rated IP20 and is for dry indoor use only — not a bathroom with direct splashes or a terrace ceiling. The working temperature is -20 to 60 °C, but there is no water or dust protection, so install it indoors only.
• Can I control it with a remote, not just the phone?

  Yes — besides Zigbee control from the app and scenes, the model has dual control and accepts 2.4G RF remotes compatible with MiLight/MiBoxer, sold separately, with a range of up to 30 m. For automations and scenes, though, a Zigbee 3.0 gateway is still required.
• Does the bulb strengthen the home Zigbee network?

  Yes. Being permanently mains-powered, the GL-S-006P acts as a router node in the Zigbee mesh and relays other devices' traffic, helping coverage. Several GU10 spots around the home thicken the network and can improve the stability of sensors and modules far from the hub.
