At 3.5W this runs cool, which matters in the enclosed glass shades these fixtures usually have — trapped heat is what shortened the life of the old capsules.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCheck the length\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eG9 LED bulbs vary in length more than halogen capsules did, and some are noticeably longer.
