Teardown of GU10

Image
Teardown of the GU10. This lamp is good for two reason, price(around 7€) and no potting compound. The plastic lens is just to pop out from the case. Two hooks holding it place. No potting inside. To remove the Led board two tabs must be desoldered. Ikea have also added a strip of copper, probably to solve some EMC problem. Also it easier to pop out the pcb with a machine vice and press on sides.
