Instant powerful bright light GE halogen lamps are compact, high output, crisp, white light sources that deliver superior colour reproduction. GE invented halogen lighting in 1958 and has been continuously perfecting the technology since then. Halogen lights are the ideal replacement for inefficient incandescent lamps, as their way of operation and dimensions are exactly the same.
GE’s Energy Efficient Halogen (EEH) range is a direct replacement for standard incandescent lamps. GE’s halogen reflector range provides compact, high output light sources with a wide scope for creative lighting. GE’s miniature halogen capsules are perfect for stylish lighting and low energy modern living. Linear halogen lamps provide a powerful light source for compact fittings used for floodlighting, architectural lighting and security.
European Union legislation Energy-saving is now official On September 1st 2009 a European Union regulation came into effect, preventing the manufacture of certain types of inefficient lamps for the EU market. The new legislation has been implemented to increase the use of efficient lamps by public and industry, thereby lowering carbon emissions and energy consumption.
Energy classes Electrical products, including mains voltage lamps (except reflectors) are graded from A-G and the energy grade must be displayed on appliances or packaging.
Energy efficient halogens (EEH) • Instant on, full light output at start-up • Exact same size and matching appearance to incandescent lightbulbs • Consume up to 30% less electricity than incandescent lamps • Last twice as long as incandescent • Lumens are maintained throughout the life of the product • Excellent colour rendering; light close to natural • Unlike some compact fluorescent products, EEH lamps are 100% retrofit with the incandescent lamps they replace • Can be used with dimming sw

High performance reflectors GE’s advanced technology Halogen-IR Standard incandescent and halogen lamps lose approximately 76% of the input energy by radiating heat, and convert only 8% into useful light. The Precise™ IR halogen capsule has multiple layers of very durable, thin, interference film which redirects heat, which would otherwise be wasted, back onto the lamp filament. This increases the filament temperature and allows it to give off more visible light for the same input power.

Miniature marvels (SEQ) • Axial or transverse filaments • Low voltage and mains voltage • Up to 4,000 hours rated life • All formats - G9, G4, GY6.35 caps GE’s miniature halogen capsules are perfect for stylish lighting and low energy modern living. They are available in low voltage and mains voltage formats - all with a UV protection system. A choice of axial or transverse filaments in the low voltage range gives fittings designers plenty of scope for accurate optical control.
G9 - the ultimate mains voltage light source GE G9 capsule lamps are the most compact mains voltage light sources available. The lamps use a patented filament support system which eliminates the disadvantages of the earlier bridge-type designs. In this design there are no additional metal and glass parts inside the capsule, which provides excellent, safe end-of-life behaviour. GE G9 lamps are made from a quartz material which blocks virtually all UV-B and UV-C radiation.
Linear halogen (DEQ) Linear halogen lamps provide a powerful light source for compact fittings used for floodlighting, architectural lighting and security. GE’s linear halogen lamps are double ended, using the universal R7s cap format, and are available in the two industry standards of 118mm or 78mm, plus longer, higher wattage versions. Choosing linear halogen DEQ IR ‘C’ Class Length 117.6mm Life 2,000 hr. 1,000 hr. 25% saving 30% saving Saving 78mm 117.
Save up to 25% energy with Infrared (IR) For the same power input as a standard halogen lamp, the visible light increases by 36% while the IR drops by 5%. This means the HIR DEQ can provide the same light as a standard DEQ type with 25% energy saving. More visible light Infra red light reflected back to filament GE IR DEQ lamps have multiple layers of very durable, thin, interference film which redirects heat, which would otherwise be wasted, back onto the lamp filament.
A guide to GE packaging GE packaging is designed to be clear and simple for retailers and users, and to comply with regulations and guidelines. A system of colour codes is used to identify each of the three light source types and also the application category - general, decorative or spotlight. Additionally, a graphic symbol is used to identify each light source type.
