70W single-ended metal halide lamp with a G12 base. Producing approximately 6,800 lumens of crisp natural daylight 4000K illumination, this HID lamp is ideal for retail displays, showrooms, galleries, accent lighting, commercial interiors, and architectural lighting where excellent colour rendering is essential.
What it is
The 70W G12 Single-Ended Metal Halide Lamp is a compact high-intensity discharge (HID) lamp designed to deliver bright, natural daylight illumination with excellent colour rendering for commercial, retail, and architectural lighting applications.
Its compact quartz arc tube and G12 single-ended base allow for precise optical control in compact luminaires. Producing approximately 6,800 lumens at 4000K, this lamp delivers crisp, natural white light with significantly better colour rendering than high-pressure sodium lamps, making it ideal for applications where product presentation, colour accuracy, and visual comfort are important.
Unlike self-ballasted lamps, this metal halide lamp requires compatible HID control gear, including a ballast and ignitor, for safe and correct operation.
