What is the LUX of a 400 watt metal halide?
The luminous output of a 400-watt metal halide lamp typically ranges from about 30,000 to 40,000 lumens, depending on the specific design and efficiency of the bulb. To convert lumens to lux, you need to consider the area over which the light is distributed. For example, if the light is spread over an area of 10 square meters, the illuminance would be approximately 3,000 to 4,000 lux.
Can you run 400watt mh in a 600 watt hps?
Yes, you can run a 400-watt metal halide (MH) bulb in a 600-watt high-pressure sodium (HPS) fixture, but you need to ensure that the ballast is compatible with the MH bulb. Using a 400-watt MH bulb in a 600-watt ballast may lead to reduced efficiency, as the ballast will deliver more power than the bulb requires. It's essential to check the ballast type and ensure that it can operate both bulb types safely. If not compatible, it's best to use the appropriate ballast for the MH bulb to avoid damaging the bulb or the fixture.
What would happen if you didn't have a light bulb for a circuit?
it would be ok in a circuit which didn't need a light bulb.
Can a light bulb work on a DC voltage?
It can, but if you're wanting to run a 120v light bulb on DC, you'll need 120v DC to get the rated output. That's a lot of batteries. It's easier, and more sensible, to find a DC rated light bulb, such as an RV bulb.
What do you need to make a simple series circuit to light a bulb?
To make a simple series circuit to light a bulb, the simplest components are a power source (such as a battery); a switch (to turn the power on or off); the bulb (obviously !); and some wires to connect everything together.
Can you replace a mercury vapor bulb with a metal halide?
Yes, you can replace a mercury vapor bulb with a metal halide bulb as they are both types of HID (high-intensity discharge) lighting. However, you may need to also replace the ballast to match the new bulb type, as metal halide bulbs usually require a different ballast. Additionally, check the wattage and size of the new metal halide bulb to ensure it is compatible with the fixture.
What size wire and breaker you need for metal halide 400w bulb?
The size of wire and breaker sizing are based on the current of the circuit. To answer this question a voltage must be stated or look on the ballast for the amperage and add that to the question.
How many fluorescent tubes equal 1000 watt metal halide light?
It would depend on the wattage of the fluorescent tubes. As a rough estimate, you would need about 6-8 standard 40-watt fluorescent tubes to approximate the light output of a 1000-watt metal halide bulb.
How do you ignite a 400w electronic metal halide or high pressure sodium bulb?
To ignite a 400W electronic metal halide or high pressure sodium bulb, you need to ensure that the power supply is connected and turned on. These bulbs require a ballast to regulate the electrical current, so make sure the ballast is functioning properly. Once everything is set up, simply turn on the power switch, and the bulb should ignite.
Can you use a 70 watt high pressure sodium bulb in a 100 watt ballast?
No. The bulb has to match the ballast wattage exactly. And you can't interchange different lamps (like metal halide) either. The ballast is specific to that wattage and lamp type. The bulb will either burn out quickly or just not work properly at all
Can t5 lamps replace metal halide lamps?
Technically yes.But you need to check the practicality of it.
Can you use a hps bulb in a metal halide fixture?
In most cases a cfl bulb can be replaced with an incandescent bulb as long as the base matches. for an example: if a cfl bulb has a GU24 base an incandescent bulb will not work! Also, ensure the wattage of the bulb does not exceed manufacturers rating.
Can you run 400watt mh in a 600 watt hps?

How can you tell if the halophane light you have is a metal halide or high pressure sodium?
If you have one or more of each type working, it is easy to tell the difference, a metal halide lamp produces a wide spectrum very white light, the high pressure sodium is a narrow spectrum light that is very yellow. If you just have the light fixture, and need to know what kind of lamp it is made for, the lamp type is often mentioned on the ballast nameplate or a small sticker near the lamp socket. If that does not work, a metal halide ballast will usually be two pieces, a transformer with a heavy laminated metal core, and a capacitor in a silver can. The sodium lamp ballast will have these also, but in addition it will have a lamp striker in a second silver can, or a plastic module. In other words Metal Halide ballast: 2 pieces, HPSodium ballast: 3 components.
How do you change the tail lights in a 1994 Ford Thunderbird?
Had this problem myself. You can't just pull out the bulb. You need to remove the metal clip first(clip is around the base of the bulb holder)and then pull out the bulb. Don't forget to put the clip back on after replacing the bulb.
How can I convert my existing lighting fixtures to LED using a led can light conversion kit?
To convert your existing lighting fixtures to LED using a LED can light conversion kit, you will need to remove the existing light bulb and fixture, install the LED can light conversion kit into the existing housing, and then insert the LED light bulb provided in the kit. This will upgrade your lighting to energy-efficient LED technology.
What size bulb do I need to replace my headlight?
you don't need a bulb
