2. High-intensity discharge lamp - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-intensity_discharge_lamp

   However, the lumen output of HID lighting can deteriorate by up to 70% over 10,000 burning hours. Many modern vehicles use HID bulbs for the main lighting systems, although some applications are now moving from HID bulbs to LED and laser technology. [2]

3. Sodium-vapor lamp - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium-vapor_lamp

   High-pressure sodium lamps are quite efficient—about 100 lumens per watt, when measured for photopic lighting conditions. Some higher-power lamps (e.g. 600 watt) have efficacies of about 150 lumens per watt. Since the high-pressure sodium arc is extremely chemically reactive, the arc tube is typically made of translucent aluminum oxide.

4. Xenon arc lamp - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xenon_arc_lamp

   The white continuous light generated by the xenon arc is spectrally similar to daylight, but the lamp has a rather low efficacy in terms of lumens of visible light output per watt of input power. Today, almost all movie projectors in theaters employ these lamps, with power ratings ranging from 900 watts up to 12 kW.

5. Metal-halide lamp - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal-halide_lamp

   It is a type of high-intensity discharge (HID) gas discharge lamp. [1] Developed in the 1960s, they are similar to mercury vapor lamps, [1] but contain additional metal halide compounds in the quartz arc tube, which improve the efficiency and color rendition of the light. The most common metal halide compound used is sodium iodide. Once the arc ...

   A 230-volt LED filament lamp, with an E27 base. The filaments are visible as the eight yellow vertical lines. An assortment of LED lamps commercially available in 2010: floodlight fixtures (left), reading light (center), household lamps (center right and bottom), and low-power accent light (right) applications An 80W Chips on board (COB) LED module from an industrial light luminaire, thermally ...

7. Electrical ballast - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_ballast

   It can be incorporated into an existing fluorescent light fixture or mounted remotely outside of it. When power is lost, the ballast will illuminate one or more lamps in the fixture at a reduced output for a minimum of 90 minutes (as required by code). These can be used as an alternative to egress lighting powered by a back-up electrical generator.
