Installation Instructions

This LED corn cob bulb is designed to replace traditional Metal Halide (MH), High-Pressure Sodium (HPS), High-Intensity Discharge (HID), and Compact Fluorescent Lamp (CFL) bulbs. It is crucial to bypass or remove the existing ballast, capacitor, and ignitor before installation.

Replacing HID/HPS/MHL Lamps

1. Step 1: Turn off power. Before beginning any installation, ensure the power supply to the fixture is completely turned off at the circuit breaker. Remove the old ballast, capacitor, and ignitor from the fixture.
2. Step 2: Connect AC wires. Make sure the alternating current (AC) wires connect directly to the E26 or E39 socket. The LED lamp input voltage is AC 100-277V. Reattach or replace the ground lead if one is needed.
3. Step 3: Screw in the LED lamp. Screw the LED corn cob bulb onto the corresponding socket (E39 or E26 with adapter).

Replacing CFL Lamps

1. Step 1: Turn off power. Ensure power to the fixture is off at the circuit breaker.
2. Step 2: Connect AC wires. Connect the AC wires directly to the socket, bypassing any existing CFL ballast.
3. Step 3: Screw in the LED lamp. Screw the LED corn cob bulb into the socket.

Important Note: The corn lamp has a built-in intelligent drive power supply and does not require an external ballast. Failure to remove or bypass the existing ballast will damage the bulb and void the warranty. Always ensure the installation size (4.4"W x 11"H) fits your fixture.

Operation

Once properly installed and powered, the GTAREN 150W LED Corn Cob Light Bulb will provide instant, bright, 5000K daylight illumination.

• Power On/Off: Control the light using the standard wall switch connected to the fixture.
• Operating Voltage: The bulb operates within the specified AC110-277V range.
• Non-Dimmable: This bulb is not compatible with dimmer switches. Using it with a dimmer may cause damage or malfunction.

Maintenance

• Cleaning: Ensure the power is off before cleaning. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the bulb. Do not use liquid cleaners or abrasive materials, as these may damage the bulb's surface or internal components.
• Inspection: Periodically inspect the bulb and fixture for any signs of damage, such as cracks, loose connections, or discoloration. Address any issues promptly.
• Heat Dissipation: The bulb features an aviation aluminum body and a micro fan for efficient heat dissipation. Ensure the fixture allows for adequate airflow around the bulb to prevent overheating and ensure optimal performance and lifespan.

Troubleshooting

• Light Does Not Turn On:
  • Check if the power supply to the fixture is active at the circuit breaker.
  • Verify the bulb is securely screwed into the socket.
  • Confirm that any old ballast, capacitor, or ignitor has been completely removed or bypassed.
  • Ensure the operating voltage is within the AC110-277V range.
• Flickering Light:
  • Ensure the bulb is not connected to a dimmer switch. This bulb is not dimmable.
  • Check for a stable power supply without voltage fluctuations.
  • Verify proper wiring and connections within the fixture.
• Radio Interference:
  • LED lights can sometimes cause minor radio frequency interference. If experiencing issues, try relocating radio antennas or increasing the distance between the radio and the light fixture.
• Loud Fan Noise:
  • The bulb includes a micro fan for cooling, and a slight fan noise is normal during operation. If the noise becomes excessively loud, unusual, or disruptive, contact customer support for assistance.
