2. Trouble light - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trouble_light

   Trouble lights are usually powered by AC wall current, but some are powered by a 12-volt source, such as a car battery. The bulb of the trouble light typically has a heavy filament to withstand dropping, and therefore is also referred to as a drop light. [1] Newer models often use LED arrays as the light source. LEDs are more energy efficient ...

3. GU24 lamp fitting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GU24_lamp_fitting

   The design was initiated by the U.S. EPA and the Lighting Research Center in 2004, in order to facilitate the deployment of compact fluorescent light bulbs with replaceable ballasts. [ 1 ] The GU24 fitting is compliant with a 2008 ruling by the California Energy Commission under Title 24 ( California Building Standards Code ) to require high ...

4. Lightbulb socket - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lightbulb_socket

   Incandescent, halogen and HMI light sources use this design. Medium bi-post (G22) is used with film & stage lighting fixtures between 250 and 1000 watts. Mini bi-post (G4-G6) Common types: G4 – 4 mm (0.15748 in) pin spacing GU4 & GZ4 – same as G4 and only denote what lamp mount clip is needed to hold the actual light bulb in place

5. Bi-pin lamp base - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bi-pin_lamp_base

   The suffix after the G indicates the pin spread; the G dates to the use of Glass for the original bulbs. GU usually also indicates that the lamp provides a mechanism for physical support by the luminaire: in some cases, each pin has a short section of larger diameter at the end (sometimes described as a "peg" rather than a "pin" [2]); the socket allows the bulb to lock into place by twisting ...

6. Emergency light - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emergency_light

   This both reduces the size of the batteries required and reduces the load on the circuit to which the emergency light is wired. Modern fixtures include a small transformer in the base of the fixture which steps-down the voltage from main current to the low voltage required by the lights. Batteries are commonly made of lead-calcium, and can last ...

7. Fluorescent lamp - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorescent_lamp

   The spectrum of light emitted from a fluorescent lamp is the combination of light directly emitted by the mercury vapor, and light emitted by the phosphorescent coating. The spectral lines from the mercury emission and the phosphorescence effect give a combined spectral distribution of light that is different from those produced by incandescent ...
