This video had to be made. If you bought a range hood recently, you may have noticed this particular bulb. This is a low voltage GU10 bulb.
It is flush to the hood, so it doesn't turn like a regular bulb or even wrap your fingers around it bulb to manipulate it out of the hood.

Try this ingenious tool as described in the video below.
