    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorescent-lamp_formats

    These lamps are used for fluorescence effects where less visible light is ideal. 09 N/A Sun-tanning lamps: These lamps produce wide or narrow band UV-B radiation 10 BL Black-Light lamps: Black light lamps give off long-wave UV-A radiation of around 350-400 nm. They are often used to attract insects to traps.

  4. Incandescent light bulb - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incandescent_light_bulb

    A 50-hour-life projection bulb, for instance, is designed to operate only 50 °C (122 °F) below that melting point. Such a lamp may achieve up to 22 lumens per watt, compared with 17.5 for a 750-hour general service lamp. [76] Lamps of the same power rating but designed for different voltages have different luminous efficacy.

  5. Infrared heater - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared_heater

    An infrared heater or heat lamp is a heating appliance containing a high-temperature emitter that transfers energy to a cooler object through electromagnetic radiation. Depending on the temperature of the emitter, the wavelength of the peak of the infrared radiation ranges from 750 nm to 1 mm.

  6. Heating element - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heating_element

    A heating element is a device used for conversion of electric energy into heat, consisting of a heating resistor and accessories. [1] Heat is generated by the passage of electric current through a resistor through a process known as Joule heating. Heating elements are used in household appliances, industrial equipment, and scientific ...

  8. 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 ...
