Retrofit Lamp
Designed to replace less-efficient compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs), MaxLite launched 5- and 7-watt LED PL Retrofit Lamps with GU24, GX23 and G24q pin base options. The new lamps easily retrofit a variety of commercial fixtures, including recessed cans, sconces and ceiling fixtures. The 5- and 7-watt LEDs replace 13- and 18-watt CFLs, respectively. Constructed with a lamp holder that rotates 270 degrees, the lamps feature a simple ballast bypass to ensure maintenance-free, energy-saving operation and higher performance. The damp-listed lamps also offer instant-on capabilities and are backed by a limited five-year warranty. Additionally, the lamps deliver a color-rendering index that is greater than 82 with uniform consistency and a long, 50,000-hour life, which is five times longer than standard CFLs. They are designed to operate on 120- to 277-volt systems and deliver an output ranging from 450 to 750 lumens, with an efficacy of up to 110 lumens per watt. Models are available in correlated color temperatures ranging from 2,700K to 5,000K.
