  2. Metal-halide lamp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal-halide_lamp

    A metal-halide lamp is an electrical lamp that produces light by an electric arc through a gaseous mixture of vaporized mercury and metal halides [1] [2] (compounds of metals with bromine or iodine). It is a type of high-intensity discharge (HID) gas discharge lamp . [ 1 ]

  3. NEMA wattage label - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NEMA_wattage_label

    A sticker that is half-red and half-white indicates a pulse start metal halide lamp (PSMH). Green is also used on HPS units in Canada. Gray indicates that the fixture is of an LED type. In addition to being colour-coded, newer NEMA stickers also state the lamp type abbreviation just below the lamp's wattage (e.g. HPS, LED).

    Twist-lock 120/230-volt MR16 halogen lighting of 35/50 watt, differs from GU10 by use of a dichroic reflector. GZ10 fixtures can use GU10 bulbs, but not vice versa. G12: 7004-63-2: 12.0 mm: 2.35 mm Used in theatre and single-end metal halide lamps. G13: 7004-51-10: 0.50 in (12.7 mm) 0.093 in (2.35 mm) Common T8, T10 and T12 fluorescent tubes. GX16d

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_lamp

    A solar lamp, also known as a solar light or solar lantern, is a lighting system composed of an LED lamp, solar panels, battery, charge controller and there may also be an inverter. The lamp operates on electricity from batteries, charged through the use of a solar photovoltaic panel. Solar-powered household lighting can replace other light ...

  8. Hydrargyrum medium-arc iodide lamp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrargyrum_medium-arc...

    With HMI bulbs, color temperature varies significantly with lamp age. A new bulb generally will output at a color temperature close to 15,000 K during its first few hours. As the bulb ages, the color temperature reaches its nominal value of around 5600 K or 6000 K. With age, the arc length becomes larger as more of the electrodes burn away.

  9. Luminous efficacy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luminous_efficacy

    It is the ratio of luminous flux to power, measured in lumens per watt in the International System of Units (SI). Depending on context, the power can be either the radiant flux of the source's output, or it can be the total power (electric power, chemical energy, or others) consumed by the source.
