Designed utilizing the latest in fluorescent lighting technology, this 12-Volt bulb incorporates a 2-1/2 Watt Ballast drawing less than 1/4 Amp. The 110mm long tube is contained in a fully enclosed MR-16 (mirror–reflector) bulb making it very rugged. This lamp provides lots of Cool White light. The surface of the light reaches only 90 degrees when running, eliminating that unexpected burning sensation when you reach up to turn off your light without looking. Installation is made easy with pre-installed spade connectors on the leads of the ballast. The ballast can be placed anywhere in the circuit between the switch and fixture. The lamp will fit any fixture that utilizes an MR-16 bulb and most Bi-Pin (G-4) sockets as well. The average life of this bulb is 10,000 hours. (24-Volt also available)
