Various governments have passed legislation to phase out manufacturing or importation of incandescent light bulbs for general lighting in favor of more energy-efficient alternatives.

4. Electric light - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_light

   An electric light, lamp, or light bulb is an electrical component that produces light.It is the most common form of artificial lighting.Lamps usually have a base made of ceramic, metal, glass, or plastic which secures the lamp in the socket of a light fixture, which is often called a "lamp" as well.

5. Multifaceted reflector - Wikipedia

   The halogen bulb can reach temperatures over 200 °C (400°F), [5] increasing the risk of fire should anything flammable come in contact or even be in close proximity to the bulb or fixture. The quartz capsule containing the filament and halogen gas is pressurized and can explode if improperly handled or damaged, and must be handled carefully ...

6. Bi-pin lamp base - Wikipedia

   Under ECE regulations, H1 lamps are required to emit white or selective yellow light. [1] U.S. regulations require H1 lamps to emit white light. [2] Under both ECE and U.S. specifications, the allowable range of white light is quite large; some H1 lamps have a slight blue or yellow tint to the glass yet still produce light legally acceptable under the requirement for white light.

9. Metal-halide lamp - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal-halide_lamp

   Like other gas-discharge lamps such as the very-similar mercury-vapor lamps, metal-halide lamps produce light by ionizing a mixture of gases in an electric arc.In a metal-halide lamp, the compact arc tube contains a mixture of argon or xenon, mercury, and a variety of metal halides, such as sodium iodide and scandium iodide.
