Metal Halide lamps produce many more ANSI lumens than an LED lamps. However, given this fact, many manufacturers are focusing their production on LED technology because they produce light that lasts 4 to 10 times longer, and they do not get hot like metal halide lamps.

Does a metal halide and mercury vapor use the same ballast?

No, metal halide and mercury vapor lamps do not use the same ballast. Metal halide lamps require a ballast specifically designed for metal halide lamps, while mercury vapor lamps require a ballast designed for mercury vapor lamps. Using the wrong ballast can result in poor performance and potential safety hazards.


Will pulse start lamp work with metal halide ballast?

A pulse start lamp can work with a metal halide ballast, but compatibility depends on the specific ballast and lamp type. It's essential to ensure that the ballast is rated for pulse start lamps, as not all metal halide ballasts are designed for this purpose. If the ballast is compatible, the pulse start lamp can provide improved efficiency and better performance compared to standard metal halide lamps. Always consult the manufacturer's specifications for optimal results.


How much does it cost to dispose of 400w metal-halide lamps?

The cost to dispose of 400w metal-halide lamps can vary depending on location and specific disposal regulations. It is recommended to contact local waste management facilities or recycling centers to inquire about the disposal costs and methods for these lamps.


What is the lumen output of a 70watt Metal Halide Recessed Down Light Since majority of the light output is through the reflector area in the Down Light you want to know the total reduction of light?

Typical LOR (lumen output ratio) of a reasonable MH downlight would be around 0.6 meaning that you get 60% of the lumen output of the lamp out of the fitting. Any manufacturer should be able to provide the LOR for a particular fitting


What are advantages of ed28 metal halide lamp over a ed37 metal halide lamp?

There really are no advantages of an ED28 over an ED37. If they are both metal halide lamps then the only difference between them, provided they have the same wattage and color temperature, is that they have different dimensions and different size bases. They will require different size sockets and will likely require different ballasts.

What is the difference between an HQI metal halide lamp and a regular metal halide lamp?

An HQI metal halide lamp belongs to the family of metal halide HID lamps. Hydrargyum quartz iodide (HQI) lamps differ from standard metal halide lamps in that they are often smaller and are offered in double ended versions and require a special socket. The gasses and metal halide salts used in HQI and standard metal halide lamps are the same.


How many lumen in 100 watt metal halide?

A 100-watt metal halide lamp typically produces around 8,000 to 10,000 lumens, depending on the specific design and efficiency of the bulb. This lumen output can vary based on factors such as the manufacturer and the lamp's age. Metal halide lamps are known for their bright, white light, making them popular for outdoor and commercial lighting applications.


What is the lumen's of a 70 watt metal halide lamp?

6000lm
