A G4 bulb is a small, bi-pin base halogen bulb that is commonly used in accent lighting, under-cabinet lighting, and other small fixtures. The "G4" designation refers to the diameter of the bulb's base, which is 4 millimeters.
G4 bulbs are typically available in wattages ranging from 5 to 20 watts, and they emit a warm, white light. They are also relatively energy-efficient, making them a good choice for applications where energy consumption is a concern.
There are several different types of G4 bulbs available, each with its own unique characteristics:
When choosing a G4 bulb, it is important to consider the following factors:
To install a G4 bulb, follow these steps:

Here are a few tips and tricks for using G4 bulbs:
Q: What is the difference between a G4 bulb and a G5.3 bulb?
A: G4 and G5.3 bulbs are both bi-pin base halogen bulbs, but they have different diameters. G4 bulbs have a diameter of 4 millimeters, while G5.3 bulbs have a diameter of 5.3 millimeters.
Q: Can I use a G4 bulb in a G5.3 socket?
A: No, you cannot use a G4 bulb in a G5.3 socket. The pins on a G4 bulb are too small to fit into the slots in a G5.3 socket.
Q: How long do G4 bulbs last?
A: Traditional halogen G4 bulbs typically last for about 2,000 hours. LED G4 bulbs can last up to 50,000 hours.
If you are looking for a versatile and energy-efficient way to add light to any space, G4 bulbs are a great option. With a variety of wattages, color temperatures, and styles to choose from, you are sure to find the perfect G4 bulbs for your needs.
